Sisters are always the most special ones in the family. Blessed are the people who are gifted with siblings and that too little sisters. I always love to welcome my sister home with all her favorite food. Both me and my little one have sweet tooth hence when there is a gathering, it’s very important to decide what’s for the dessert. We, as in both me and my sister have grown up having some weird combos in desserts. My sis love to eat Gulab Jamuns with chilled yogurt, whereas i eat Rasgullas with ice cream …now isn’t that weird! haha
Well those who know me from my early days of blogging are very much aware of my love for Gulab Jamun. Yes, i simply love Gulab Jamun and all it’s version, i don’t min having mawa bati, makkan peda etc etc unless until it belongs to the same Gulab Jamun family, everything is welcomed. All these days i had been seeing people making instant versions of almost everything ( sweet or savory ) and one such amazing instant recipe is BREAD GULAB JAMUN. Omg! i would have never believed this unless until i made it all by myself. I swear on God, no one in this world can identify or distinguish this bred gulab jamun with the original mawa ones. Wanna know how, so let us quickly move on to the recipe of this amazingly delicious and easy Bread Gulab Jamun…
