Thanks Snigdha, As per your choice you can use khoya/mawa . It is true that khoya is the original and traditional ingredient of Gulab jamun.

Can we use Ricotta cheese or cottage cheese instead of Khoya in preparing the gulab jamun.

Khoya/Mawa (reduced milk) is originally/traditionally/commonly used to make Gulab Jamuns. Why is it being substituted with Bisquick (pancake mix made with enriched wheat flour) and Carnation powder !?!
