Ingredients
To make Gulab jamuns:
6 slices of bread, edges trimmed off
3-4 tbs milk/cream/evaporated milk(I used evaporated milk)(add more milk if needed)
1/8 tsp of baking powder/baking soda
To make sugar syrup:
1 cup sugar with 3/4 cup water
1 tsp. rose water/cardamom powder/few saffron threads
1-2 tbs dedicated coconut-for garnish
oil for deep frying
Instructions
To make sugar syrup:
Boil sugar with water until gets 1 thread consistency(when a drop of syrup is stretched between your finger & thumb, you get a single wire) add some rose water/cardamom powder/saffron thread, keep aside on stove on the lowest heat.
To make Gulab jamuns
1-Put bread slices into mini food processor and make bread crumbs out of it, then add milk & baking soda/baking powder to it and process until you get dough like consistency, once done take it out and put in bowl and knead with your hands, it should be like soft dough, make small balls by rolling a little dough between your palms(using 1tbs measuring spoon to make equal small balls out of it) they double in size when soaked in syrup.
Heat oil in frying pan/wok on medium to low heat(not burning hot, or Gulab jamuns will burn very quickly, specially this one) fry Gulab jamuns until gets nice golden color, drop immediately fried Gulab jamuns in to sugar syrup, they will absorb sugar syrup and enlarge in size, Drain the gulab jamun from the sugar syrup after they are soaked well, sprinkle some desiccated coconut on top/roll them in desiccated coconut.
Serve warm/cold.
