Introduction
A delicious village-style twist on traditional Indian Gulab Jamun made using soft white bread, warm milk, and rock candy syrup. The bread dough is rolled into smooth round balls, deep-fried in cold-pressed oil until golden brown, and soaked overnight in fragrant sweet syrup.
Step 1
In a large brass pot over an open fire, add water and rock candy (kalkandu). Boil and stir continuously until the rock candy dissolves completely into a sweet syrup, then transfer the syrup into a wide tray.
Step 2
Trim the brown crusts off the slices of bread and crumble the white bread into fine crumbs in a large mixing platter.
Step 3
Gradually pour warm milk over the bread crumbs and knead thoroughly into a smooth, pliable dough.
Step 4
Heat cold-pressed gingelly oil in a large deep frying pan over the fire.
Step 5
Pinch small portions of the bread dough and roll them between palms into smooth, crack-free round balls.
Ingredients List
Important Notes
Make sure to roll the dough balls smooth without any cracks so they do not break apart while deep frying.
Fry on moderate heat to ensure the jamuns cook evenly on the inside without burning on the outside.
Soaking in syrup for several hours or overnight ensures the bread balls absorb maximum syrup and become melt-in-the-mouth soft.
