Instructions
- In a bowl, combine all-purpose flour, gram flour, cornflour (cornstarch), baking soda, orange food color, and yogurt. Gradually add water and whisk until you achieve a smooth batter with a flowing consistency.
- Transfer the jalebi batter into a squeeze bottle or piping bag for easy dispensing.
- In a separate pot, combine water, green cardamom and sugar. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and add kewra water. Let the mixture simmer for 5-8 minutes until it reaches one-string consistency, or becomes slightly sticky. Keep the syrup warm over the lowest heat while you prepare the jalebis.
- Heat oil in a deep pan or wok over medium-low heat. Once the oil is hot, pipe the batter into the oil, forming spirals.
- After the batter has settled, increase the heat to medium-high. Fry the jalebis for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are crispy and golden, but do not allow them to brown.
- Immediately transfer the fried jalebis with tongs into the warm sugar syrup, ensuring they are fully coated on both sides. Let them soak for 30-40 seconds each side.
- Remove the jalebis from the syrup and place them on a serving platter. Optionally, garnish with slivered almonds, crushed pistachios, or dried rose petals. Serve warm.
Notes
- This recipe batter doesn't require fermentation, prepare the jalebi batter only 5 to 10 minutes before frying.
- Use a small nozzle, for thin, crispy jalebis. For thicker, juicier ones, use a larger nozzle.
