Gulab Jamun is a popular Indian/Pakistani sweet dish comprised of fried milk balls in a sweet syrup flavoured with cardamom seeds and rosewater or saffron. Mixes and finished products are often available in supermarkets, though it is still popular to be made from scratch.

Gulab Jamun is one of the few Indian desserts that is generally appreciated by Westerners, perhaps because of its resemblance to other syrup-covered pastries (e.g., pancakes). Because of that, Gulab Jaman appears to be increasing in popularity, and is probably the most common sweet served in Indian restaurants in the West.
