Delicious Jalebi Recipe by Chef Shaun 🇹🇹 Foodie Nation

Jalebi is a popular sweet treat originating from the Indian subcontinent. The batter is made from a mixture of flour, yogurt, and water, which is fermented overnight to create a slightly sour flavor. Piped into hot oil in a circular shape, it's fried until crispy. Once fried, jalebi is soaked in a sugar syrup which is sometimes flavored with spices and aromatic ingredients. Its distinctive spiral shape and bright color make it visually appealing.
Jalebi has a crispy exterior and a soft, syrup-soaked interior, offering a delightful texture and flavor combination. It's typically served as a dessert or snack, often paired with other Indian sweets. With cultural significance in Indian festivals and celebrations, jalebi is cherished as a beloved dessert.

When I am making Jalebi I usually make the batter the night before but do not put the baking soda . Baking soda is good only when making the same time. I use turmeric or the real saffron threads if I have in my recipe for color or sometimes a tiny bit of orange or yellow coloring .I don’t add cornstarch only the original ingredients. Flour, yogurt, warm water and the color cover in bowl and leave overnight in the oven . You will see the next day it’s fermented with little. bubbles . Pour into squeeze bottle and fry . The sugar and water syrup I add cardamom pods like you did but I put a little lemon 🍋 juice keeps it from crystallizing.

[@jameelakiritharan6708]

Chef Shaun, please note that jalebi IS NOT FROM THE INDIAN SUB CONTINENT. It is from Persia/Iran and was BROUGHT /CARRIED to India by the muslims. It is the same for samosas, biriyani etc. Thank You.
