Jodhpuri Famous Gulab Jamun Ki Sabji Is Going To Leave You Drooling

Gulab jamun ki sabzi had initially originated from a vibrant city in Rajasthan that is Jodhpur and is commonly eaten by the locals. The uniqueness of the dish makes it worth a try for the tourists in the city. This dish is identified for its authenticity, rich taste and the rare manner it’s put together in. The recipe isn’t a popular one for a lot of people because having gulab jamuns dipped in a tomato gravy instead of a sugar syrup is beyond one’s imagination. Although just as exciting as it sounds, it's so delicious that it can make anyone fall for it with just a single bite.
