Bread Gulab Jamun




It would be apt to caption this as the twin of our ubiquitous Gulab Jamun! Needless to say it is simply delectable and the interesting aspect is that it is made using just bread, maida and Khoya. As nobody can deny savoring its predecessor same goes with this Bread Gulab Jamun. Made using home made khoya, maida and bread you can gorge as much as you can this diwali and for many occasions.

 You can prepare this sweet using store bought Khoya too.


Ingredients:


Bread - 6 slices
Maida - 1 1/4 tsp

For Khoya:

Salted Butter - 2 tbsp
Cream - 1/4 cup
Full fat milk - 1 tumbler
Milk powder - 1 cup


Method:

Take a bowl. Remove the edges of the bread slices and crumble into pieces. Add maida to it. Mix well and set aside.




Now to make Khoya/ Mawa.

Take a heavy bottomed pan. Heat it. Add butter. Let it melt.Then add cream. Mix well. Add milk. Then add milk powder in parts. KEEP STIRRING IN ONE HAND while adding the powder. Maintain LOW FLAME throughout the entire process of making Khoya. It took me around 35 minutes to make this as it has to reach a THICK AND SMOOTH  consistency.










Now this is khoya.




The next step is to Mix 3 tbsp of Khoya with the bread maida mixture. Add 2 to 3 tsp of water while kneading.





Grease your palms with ghee and make small balls from this and arrange on a plate.


Fry in oil.





Prepare sugar syrup. Toss these fried balls to the syrup. Then enjoy after a couple of hours.
