Last week i made Gulab jamun using instant mix and i had some leftover dough lying in my pantry.My MIL had told me once about jamun kofta.So i thought of using the leftover by making this gravy.I googled and got this recipe from
Cook at ease.I followed the same recipe with some changes.It came out very well.Its taste and texture reminded my paneer butter masala recipe.We all enjoyed with chapathi.Raksha ate half of the jamuns before adding to the gravy
.She liked it very much.I coudn’t bring round shape to the balls as i made with the leftover wet dough.But i am sure u’ll get nice shape as in the original recipe if u try with mix powder.Do try this for ur kid’s get together or birthday parties.They’ll love it for sure!

Note
- Adding the cooked & mashed potato acts as binding agent.So do not skip it.
- No problem if the jamun dough becomes slightly watery.No need to rest the dough.U can deep fry them immediately.
- The consistency of the gravy can be adjusted by adding more milk.Make the gravy slightly thin as it will thicken after it cools down.
- Using fresh curd is important else gravy will taste tangy.
