Jalebi is one of the most popular and mouth-watering Indian sweets – crispy on the outside, juicy and syrupy on the inside. At Old Madan’s, we take pride in offering perfectly made Jalebis that remind you of festival mornings and special celebrations. But did you know you can also try making this delicious treat at home?
Here’s a simple step-by-step recipe to make crispy, golden Jalebis:
1 cup all-purpose flour (maida)
2 tablespoons gram flour (besan)
1 tablespoon yogurt (dahi)
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup sugar
1 cup water
A pinch of saffron strands (optional, for color & flavor)
Ghee or oil (for deep frying)
1 teaspoon cardamom powder (for syrup flavor)
1️⃣ Prepare the Batter:
In a mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, gram flour, yogurt, baking powder, and a little water.
Mix well until you get a smooth, thick batter (similar to pancake batter).
Cover and let it ferment for 8–10 hours (overnight works best).
2️⃣ Make Sugar Syrup:
In a pan, combine sugar and water.
Heat until the sugar dissolves completely, then boil for a few minutes until it reaches a one-string consistency.
Add cardamom powder and saffron strands for aroma and color.
Keep the syrup warm.
3️⃣ Fry the Jalebi:
Heat ghee or oil in a wide pan over medium heat.
Fill the batter in a piping bag or squeeze bottle.
Squeeze the batter in circular spiral shapes directly into the hot oil.
Fry until golden and crisp on both sides.
4️⃣ Soak in Syrup:
Remove the fried Jalebis and immediately dip them into warm sugar syrup for 1–2 minutes.
Let them soak well but avoid making them soggy.
5️⃣ Serve:
Remove Jalebis from the syrup and arrange on a plate.
Serve warm for the best taste.
🎉 Pro Tip:
For the perfect Jalebi, ensure the batter is fermented properly and the sugar syrup has the right consistency. Too thin syrup makes Jalebis less sweet; too thick makes it sticky.
