    How To Make

    Preparation of Jalebi Mixture

    1. In a bowl, add Maida (All purpose flour), yogurt and baking powder and mix all the ingredients through spoon.
    2. Now add water to make a thick paste. (Slowly and gradually add water to make a paste otherwise the mixture will be watery and jalebi will be deformed).
    3. After making thick paste keep it in a warm place for about 4-5 hours to get ferment.
    4. Now after 5 hrs, prepare sugar syrup.

    Preparation of Sugar Syrup (Jalebi Sheera)

    To prepare a perfect sugar syrup to coat jalebi;

    1. We need 1 cup of water and 1.5 cups of sugar mix it well.
    2. Add few drops of Kewra essence
    3. Also, add Green cardamom seeds or powder to add aroma and flavor in syrup.
    4. Boil it for about 10 mins on medium heat.
    5. Keep boiling until you get nice textured or sticky syrup. You can check the stickiness through fingers. (Make sure to keep it cool before checking as sugar syrup can hurt you due to high temperature)
    6. As you get the desired stickiness keep it on a stove on the very low heat.

    Frying & Soaking in Sugar Syrup

    1. Now, after 5 hrs fill the mixture in a bottle with a small hole or use traditional jalebi process to fill jalebi mixture in cloth and wrap it around hand to form jalebi in hot oil. I used a simple bottle hack and used 'ketchup bottle to make jalebi.
    2. Heat up the oil in a pan and start frying jalebi.
    3. To make a perfect shape of jalebi, just pour the jalebi mixture in hot oil in circular spiral form.
    4. As the Jalebi got fried and changes color to light brown.
    5. Take it out and pour in warm sugar syrup for 5 seconds. (Make sure the syrup is not hot otherwise the Jalebi's get soggy)
    6. Take the Jalebi out from syrup and keep it on the wire to remain crispy for a longer period.
    7. Now Jalebi's are ready to serve.

    Jalebi is the all-time favorite recipe in South Asia and one of the best food in a sweet category that people sell on the streets. It also ranks in best-selling street food in sweet dishes. Everybody loves it due to its unique flavor.

    Expert Tips

    • Monitor the consistency of batter. If it's watery the jalebi will become flat. If it's thick then it will turn to soft.
    • Never fry jalebi on high heat. It will turn dark in color and will become soggy.
    • Before pouring the batter in oil, make a test version and then properly pour in spiral format.
    • Keep the hand in one direction for smooth spirals patterns.
    • Fry on medium heat to make it crispy.
    • Soak fried jalebi in warm sugar syrup. It shouldn't be cold or hot.
    • To make crispy jalebi, use the right quantity of baking powder.

    How to Store

    As it comes to room temperature, you can store it in airtight container. Keep it in refrigerator for a day. You can microwave for a minutes or 30 seconds to make it crispy and juicy again. It will taste like fresh jalebi

    Notes

    • It's important to note down the consistency of the batter as it will affect the quality of jalebi.
    • If the batter is watery or runny then the jalebi will become flat.

    • You can add all purpose flour to manage the runny batter.
    • In the same way, if the batter is thick then it will become soft in no time. 
    • Fry on medium heat. Check the temperature with a testing piece. 
    • If the temperature is high then it will quickly turn dark. 
    • Properly pour in a spiral format. Keep the hand in one direction for smooth spirals. 
    • Soak fried jalebi in warm sugar syrup. It shouldn't be cold or hot.
    • To make extra crispy jalebi, use the right quantity of baking powder and fry on medium heat.
