Jalebi is a popular Indian sweet that is loved by people of all ages. It is a deep-fried sweet made from a fermented batter shaped into a spiral, which is then soaked in sugar syrup. Jalebi is known for its crispy texture and delectable sweetness.

Making jalebi starts with making batter by mixing flour and baking soda. The mixture is then left to ferment for a few hours. Once the batter is ready, it is poured into a piping bag or a squeeze bottle with a small nozzle.

To fry Jalebi, heat oil or ghee in a pan. The batter is then poured into the oil in a circular motion, forming a spiral shape. The jalebis are fried till they become golden brown and crisp.

After frying, the jalebis are immediately dipped in hot sugar syrup. The syrup is usually flavored with cardamom or saffron, which adds a touch of aromatic flavor to the dessert. The jalebis absorb the sugar syrup, become moist and juicy.

Jalebi is often enjoyed hot straight from the sugar syrup. The contrast between the crisp exterior and the syrup-soaked interior makes for a delightful combination of textures. It is usually served as a dessert during festivals, weddings and special occasions. Whether enjoyed alone or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, rabri or a glass of hot milk for breakfast.
