Bread Jamun

Sweet tooth? Want a Jamun real fast? Try this:)
Ingredients (Makes 14 to 15 pieces)
Bread: 8 Slices
Milk: 1/4 Cup
Ghee: 1/4 Tea Spoon
Sugar: 1/2 Cup
Water: 1/2 Cup
Vanilla Essence: 2 - 3 Drops
Oil/Ghee: For Frying

Preparation time: 25 minutes
Cooking Time: 15 minutes

Method
Cut the sides of the bread. Take the white part only.
Crush it with your hands and add milk little by little and make the bread to a dough.
Add 1/4 tea spoon of ghee to the dough and knead it well
Keep the dough aside for 15 to 20 minutes.
Make small - medium sized balls out of the dough
Heat the oil/ghee in a pan. Once it is hot, reduce the flame.
Fry this in oil/ghee in low flame till it becomes brown in color
Sugar syrup
To a pan add sugar and water and boil well.
To this add Vanilla Essence

Once the syrup gets cooled add the fried bread jamuns to it.
Keep for soaking
Note:
Once the jamuns get soaked if you wish you can stain off the excess sugar syrup or can serve the jamuns with the syrup
From 8 slices of bread you can make about 15 medium sized jamuns
It is advised to pre-heat the oil in a high flame and fry the jamuns only in low flame.This will ensure that jamun is nicely cooked and not burned.
