GULAB JAMUN KHEER (BEST OUT OF WASTE)

GULAB JAMUN KHEER  (best out of waste)

Gulab Jamun is liked by all.  The juicy jamun with the sugar syrup is heavenly. 

Normally, I used to make Gulab Jamun with the ready made packet available in the market.  Whenever I make it, my children will not wait for me to keep the same in fridge as I like to have it cold.  As soon as it swells, they will start eating it.

But today, when I made it, it was a mess.  I do not know what went wrong and most of the Jamuns broke and it was a sweet kichadi.  I could hardly take out around 8-10 gulab jamuns from the mess. 

I was thinking what to do now with the broken ones.  I have tasted gulab jamun with rabdi in my office.  So I thought I will make kheer out of it.  What I did was reduced half a litre of milk and mixed the broken gulab jamun and the sugar syrup with the milk and boiled for 5 minutes.  Mashed the jamuns  again and kept in fridge.  Garnished with some dry fruits.  I tell you, it was really awesome.

Now let us look at the procedure.

Ingredients:

7-8 gulab jamuns

½ litre milk

Chopped dry fruits

Method:

Reduce the milk in a heavy bottom vessel to half (1/4 ltr)

Break the gulab  jamun, mash it and add it along with the sugar syrup to the milk

Mix well and boil for 5 minutes

Cool it and keep it in fridge.

Garnish with chopped dry fruits.

Serve chilled.

NOTE:  If you have the gulab jamuns are broken while preparing, do not worry, follow the above procedure and enjoy the way I did.

Since it is very sweet, you will not be able to consume more.  Hence serves around 7-8 people.
