Gulab Jamun Tiramisu was a combination I didn't know I needed but I'm so glad I put the two together. It might just be my new favourite way to have Tiramisu. Don't be intimidated by what looks like a lengthy process. It's very simple to make the different components and then assemble them. Here's how I made it. 40 ladyfinger biscuits 16 gulab jamuns, cut into halves For the milk mixture 2 cups milk 100 ml condensed milk A pod of cardamom A few strands of saffron For the Saffron custard 1/2 ltr milk 4 tbsp sugar 2 tbsp custard powder A few strands of saffron A pod of cardamom For the filling 2 1/2 cups whipped cream 2 tbsp icing sugar 400 gms mascarpone cheese 1. For the milk mixture, mix everything in a saucepan and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 5 mins. Leave it to cool before use. 2. Make the custard according to packet instructions but add the saffron and cardamom to to infuse in the milk first. Leave to cool before use. 3. Mix everything together for the filling and set aside. To assemble. 1. Take half the biscuits, dip each one in the milk mixture, one by one and spread on the bottom of a large rectangular serving dish to make a layer. 2. Top with half the whipped cream filling 3. Then put half of the jamuns to make another layer. 4. Continue with the rest of the biscuits, dipped in the milk mixture. Then spread the cooled down custard to make another layer 5. Top with the remaining whipped cream mixture and jamuns. 6. Leave to chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours before serving.

I make this wheat banana bread all the time because I need just ten minutes to make this batter. Then pop it in the oven and forget about it for about an hour. The rewards are high for such bare minimum effort. 3 bananas, overripe, mashed 1/2 cup melted butter 1/2 cup brown sugar 2 eggs 1 tsp vanilla essence 1/2 cup cream Juice of 1/2 a lime 1 tsp baking soda 3/4 cup wheat flour A handful of chocolate chips. Whisk all ingredients together in a large bowl. Pour in a greased and lined loaf pan. Bake in a preheated oven, at 180 C, 55 minutes.
