INSTRUCTIONS

Preparing the Jalebi Batter :

• Collect all the required ingredients.
• Take maida in a bowl.
• Add food colour, baking powder, and curd.
• Stir well to combine with a spoon or weird whisk.
• Add water little by little to make a smooth thick batter with pouring consistency.
• With the spatula or spoon, first mix. Break the small or tiny lumps with the spatula or spoon while mixing. Make sure that no lumps remain.
• Beat the batter well with a whisk in one direction in a circular motion for 4 mins. This adds volume to the batter and makes it even and smooth.
• Stir the batter lightly and it should have a flowing consistency.
• Let’s keep this batter aside for about 30 minutes. In the meantime, we can prepare the Sugar syrup for Jalebi.

Preparing Sugar Syrup for Jalebi:

• Take 1 cup sugar in a deep pan.
• Add 1/2 cup water.
• Keep stirring on medium flame, so that the sugar dissolves.
• When sugar is dissolved, reduce to heat to low and add food colour or saffron strands.
• Cook till you get one string consistency in the sugar syrup.
• Take a small portion of the syrup in between your thumb and forefinger. Gently move the fingers away from each other, you would see a string developing between the index finger and thumb.
• If you see 1 string, the Sugar syrup is ready else it would need another 1-2 minute on stove.
• Switch off the flame and add lemon juice. Stir well.
• Remove from heat and set aside. Keep the syrup warm.

Loading Jalebi Batter in Dispenser :

• Transfer the mixture to a squeeze bottle. You can also use an milk bag or zip lock bag.
• Tighten the cap and the batter is ready to make crispy jalebis.

Frying the Jalebis:

• Heat oil for deep frying in a Kadai or pan. Y
• To check the temperature of the oil, add a tiny amount of batter to the oil. It has to come up immediately without browning.
• Now squeeze the bottle gently and move in a circular motion to get spiral.
• Either start from the centre and move outside or vice versa. Be careful while making the jalebis as the oil is hot.
• When one side is partly cooked, turn over and fry the other side.
• Let it fry until it turns golden brown from both sides.
• When the jalebi is done it turns crisp, removes from oil.

Adding Fried Jalebi to Sugar Syrup :

• Immediately put it into the warm sugar syrup. The syrup should we warm or a little hot, it shouldn’t be cold.
• Turn over after a minute so that both sides are coated with the syrup. Keep it in syrup for approx. 2-minutes.
• Remove jalebis from the sugar syrup and transfer to a serving plate. Enjoy homemade jalebi with milk or rabri.
