BREAD GULAB JAMUN/INSTANT GULAB JAMUN RECIPE

This is very simple to make and tastes absolutely delicious. Traditional gulab jamun we prepare using Khova . But this recipe is a quick solution to have a nice gulab jamun if you really crave for.


INGREDIENTS

  • white bread-8 slices
  • Sugar-1&1/2 cup
  • Milk-6-7 tbsp
  • Saffron-1 pinch
  • Water-2&1/2 cup
  • Rose water-1 tbsp
  • Cardamom-2

METHOD

  • Trim the edges of the bread slices ,cut  them in to small pieces
  • crumbles the bread pieces using a grinder.
  • Add warm milk little by little in to the bread crumbs and make a dough.
  • Make sure bread crumbs are mixed well with the warm milk.
  • Take a small portion from the dough and make equal sized balls out of it.
  • Make sure bread balls are smooth and crack free.
  • Grease your hands if the dough is sticky.
  • In a kadai pour enough oil for deep frying and fry the bread balls in medium flame.
  • Fry until the bread balls get a golden colour and also make sure inside of the bread jamuns are cooked well.Otherwise suagr syrup will not seep in to this and inside of the jamuns may stay raw.
  • In another pan add enough sugar ,water,cardamom and saffron strands.
  • let this boil well until we get a nice and thick sugar syrup.
  • Once the jamuns are cooked well ,directly transfer this in to the prepared sugar syrup.
  • After adding jamuns do not boil the suagr syrup,this will give cracks on the gulab jamun.
  • Switch off the flame of sugar syrup and let the jamuns rest for atleast 1-2 hours,so that jamuns can absorb all the sweetness and flavours of sugar syrup.
  • finally add some rose water.
