Cooking by Gits

So I've been playing around with Pakistani/Indian style dessert sweets this week. My first attempt at gulab jamun (little fried balls of powdered milk in sugar syrup) resulted in a HUGE sticky mess in the deep fryer. My second attempt was marginally better, the balls stayed together but were hard as rocks. They did soften a bit when I cut them in half and left them in the syrup overnight. sigh.

Anyway, I decided to cheat and buy a packet of gulab jamun mix at Superstore. When I got it home and read the box I discovered it was made by Gits. Or for Gits possibly. I thought it must be like "Indian Desserts for Dummies". The cheater batch is a vast improvement over the homemade one, although I discovered reading the packet that in my first 2 attempts I had made the balls WAY too big.
