Steps

45min

1

Add sugar & water to a pot. Boil on a medium flame. Add lemon juice or milk to the syrup. Once the impurities of sugar start floating remove it with the help of a spoon. Now add cardamom powder, saffron or colour. Stir & cook until it reaches 1 string consistency. Keep sugar syrup warm when you start frying jalebis.
2

Add all-purpose flour, curd & water in a mixing bowl. Mix well to make a thick, smooth & lump-free batter. Now add baking soda & mix. The batter should have flowing consistency.
3

Heat ghee in a Kadai on medium flame to fry jalebis. Cut a small piece of milk bag from one corner. Pour some batter in it. Close the bag with a rubber band.
4

Once the oil becomes hot enough to fry squeeze the batter from milk bag in a circular motion to make jalebis. Once it is cooked from 1 side turn it to cook from another side.
5

Once the jalebi is cooked remove it & transfer it to warm sugar syrup for 2 min. Repeat the procedure to fry the remaining jalebis. Serve hot.
