Gulab Jamun
My brother Stanley took us to a local Indian restaurant called Khazana. The food was fantastic and I fell in love with this golden milkball dessert.

(sorry, no image at this time)
80 mL 4 Tablespoons butter, melted
250 mL 1 cup bisquick
500 mL 2 cups powdered milk
40 mL 2 Tablespoons cream, yogurt or sour creram
60 mL 1/4 cup cream or milk (if necessary)
500 mL 2 cups water
375 mL 1 1/2 cups sugar
5 mL 1 teaspoons ground cardamon
0.5 mL 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
0.5 mL 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
0.5 mL 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
5 mL 1 teaspoon rose water

Directions:

  • In a bowl, add melted butter, bisquick, powdered milk and cream. Knead together adding additional cream to moisten, a bit at a time, if necessary. Make a smooth ball, cover and let the dough rest for 30 minutes. Make into teaspoon-sized small balls.
  • In a 4-litre pot, bring water and sugar to a boil, then add spices. Simmer and reduce until the mixture until syrupy. It should be about half as much liqud as before. Turn the heat off and add rose water.
  • Seperately, deep fry the balls until golden-medium brown. Place on paper towels and pat remaining oil off.
  • Place the balls into the syrup mixture pot and let sit overnight. The balls will absorb much of the syrup.
