Bread Gulab Jamuns
Recipe: Sanjay Hingorani
Ingredients:
10 slices of white / brown bread with sides trimmed, makes 10-12 jamun balls.
6-8 tbps of milk
100 gms or one cup sugar
Oil to fry
1/2 tsp cardamom powder
A few kishmish
Method:
Crumble the bread in a mixing bowl and add milk two spoons at a time and start kneading it. Make sure you don't add too much milk too fast. Make a soft dough.
Put the sugar in a deep pan add water to make the syrup. Water just over one cup.
On low heat 10-12 mins. Keep checking.
Make the balls, take a little dough, roll it in your palms, flatten it and add 1-2 kishmish in the middle. Lift the sides, pack it in well and then roll it in your palms again to make perfect round balls.
Rest them for a few mins. Then fry them in hot oil on low heat until they turn golden brownish. Take them out on paper towels to drain.
Check the syrup. If it's done add in the cardamom powder and then add the fried balls in. Cook on low heat for a few minutes. Let the balls absorb the syrup in. I poked them with a fork just to be sure. Done.
Garnish with pistachio slivers and serve.
Note: You may add a little ghee in the oil, just for the flavor.
Eat n enjoy !
Cheers
Sanjay
