Gulab Jamun

Syrupy brown nutty milk doughballs served warm with ice cream. You have to try these once in your life. This is the dessert that my family insisted made the Mowgli menu. They are to Indians the equivalent of a ‘nans’ sticky toffee pudding.

The Mowgli Chocolate Brownie

This is ACTUALLY what my family orders whenever they come in – blighters. Served warm with ice cream. (Gf)
