Jalebi, The Super Sweet Of Sweets

Hey Steemit guys. Today, I'll be having some more sweets (Oh man, my weight.) This common sweet is called Jalebi.

Here are the following ingredients

1. Refined flour (maida) 1 cup
2. Yogurt 1/2 cup
3. Sugar 3 cups
4. Milk 1 tablespoon
5. Saffron (Kesar) a few
6. Ghee for deep-frying

As you can see, it is a flour-based sweet. It has a crunchy and very glossy look to it. It usually has a Spiral design and size can vary in size. So basically, the smaller, the crispier and the larger, the juicer. Thy just melts in your mouth after they become jelly-like.

Method

Step 1
In a large bowl, whisk refined flour, yogurt and sufficient water to a smooth and pouring consistency batter. Cover and keep in a warm place to ferment for 24 hours.

Step 2
Beat the batter with your hands again for 15 minutes. Cook sugar with 2 cups water in a deep non-stick pan on high heat, stirring continuously, till the sugar dissolves.

Step 3
Add milk and when the scum rises to the top, collect it with a ladle and discard.

Step 4
Add saffron and cook, stirring, till the syrup reaches one string consistency. Keep the syrup warm. Heat sufficient ghee in a Kadai on medium heat.

Step 5
Pour some batter onto a jalebi cloth, gather the edges and make a tight potli.

Step 6
Squeeze round spirals into the hot ghee and deep fry, turning them over gently a few times, till they are evenly golden and crisp.

Step 7
Drain and soak in sugar syrup for 2-3 minutes. Take them out of the syrup and serve hot.

Note that it is high in calories. It's good to have it with tea and friends (who like being a sweet-tooth).

Thank you for your time See ya.
