    various Joe's (likely Original Joe's) in San Fran.

    Alberta has a small but growing chain of bars with good pub food
    also called "Original Joe's". I'm sure there's no connection.

    It's my favourite spot in Fort McMurray when I go there. I've
    written about it here in the past.

    "Original Joe's" came after, not before, Joe's, Joe's Eats, Joe's
    Grill, Chicago Joe's, Joey's Only, Joey's Seafood, Joey Tomato and
    Shoeless Joe's.

    Title: Gulab Jamun (Rose-Flavored Sweetmeats in Syrup)
    Categories: Desserts, Candy, Middle east, Indian
    Yield: 1 servings

    8 tb Full cream milk powder
    3 tb Self-raising flour
    1/4 ts Bicarbonate of soda
    1/4 ts Ground cardamom
    1 tb Soft butter or ghee
    3 tb Water
    Ghee or oil for frying
    SYRUP:
    2 c White sugar
    4 c Water
    5 Bruised cardamom pods
    2 tb Rose water or few drops rose
    Essence

    Sift milk powder, flour, bicarbonate of soda and ground cardamom
    into large bowl. Rub in butter or ghee, then add enough water to
    give firm but pliable dough which can be moulded into balls the
    size of marbles, or into small sausage shapes. Fry slowly in hot
    ghee (or oil flavoured with ghee) until they turn the color of
    unblanched almonds. The frying must be done over gentle heat.
    Drain on absorbent paper.

    Have ready the syrup, made by combining sugar, water, and cardamom
    pods, and heating until sugar is dissolved. Put the fried gulab
    jamun into the syrup and simmer for 30 minutes until they are
    almost double in size, and are soft and spongy. Add rose water
    when they have cooled slightly. Allow to cool completely and serve
    at room temperature or slightly chilled.

    Note: If pan in which they are simmering is not large enough to
    hold all the sweets and leave room for them to expand, simmer them
    in two lots. If the syrup has thickened when the first batch has
    been cooled, add a little more sugar and water and bring to a boil
    before adding the second batch.
