“Gulab Jamun”, the very term makes me drool I am always happy to make Gulab Jamun as it is the only sweet that Chotu really loves!! I wanted to try this instant Bread Gulab Jamun since a long time. As always, I had a pile of left-over bread to be used immediately. So this was the right time to try.. Here u go with this sumptuous and easy sweet as a Holi Special Recipe!!
Lets get cooking….
[Preparation Time-15 mins : Cooking Time- 25 mins]
Ingredients:
- Bread – 6 slices
- Milk – 1/2 cup
- Rose Essence – a few drops
- Oil – to fry
For the Sugar Syrup
- Sugar – 3/4 th cup
- Water – 3/4 cup
- Cardamom – 2
Method:
- Lets get the sugar syrup ready first. Take sugar, water and cardamom in a pan. Heat it and bring it to a boil. Heat it in medium flame and when it turns sticky, switch off the flame. Keep it aside.
- Take the bread slices and trim the edges. Take milk (at room temperature) in a bowl. Dip each bread slice in the milk, squeeze off the excess milk and place it in another bowl.
- Repeat for all bread slices. Add a few drops of rose essence and gently mix the soaked bread mixture. It will in the form of a sticky dough. Meanwhile heat a pan with oil enough to deep fry. Pinch a small ball sized dough and roll gently and smoothly. Keep all the balls ready to fry.
- Drop 4-5 balls in hot oil and fry them in low-medium flame until golden brown. Drain in paper towels and transfer them to warm sugar syrup. Let it rest for atleast 2 hours so that the balls absorb the sugar syrup.
Bread Gulab Jamun is ready.
Enjoy this instant version with your family and friends!!
Tips:
- Do not apply pressure while mixing the dough and shaping the balls. It will become hard and will not absorb the sugar syrup.
- U can grease your palms with oil/ghee while shaping the balls.
- Fry the balls in low-medium flame, else it will be brown outside and not cooked inside.
- Make sure to squeeze off the excess milk, else the dough will be very sticky and difficult to handle.
- If u find the dough very sticky and unable to shape into balls, add 1 or 2 tbsps of milk powder.
- Adding rose essence gives a nice flavour, u can skip if u dont have. It taste good just with the cardamom flavour too.
