Today, for Ugadi festival ( Telugu New Year day ), I tried my favorite sweet, Paneer Jamun and it came awesome. Paneer Jamun is a tasty Indian home made dessert. The jamuns are made from paneer and khoya, then deep fried and stewed in sugar syrup. Khoya or mawa is considered as one of the important dairy product in India, and commonly used in making many sweet dishes.
