Jalebi is probably one of the sweet which I stayed away for such a long time thinking that it is a complicated one to make...So when srivalli announced this dish for Indian Cooking Challenge,I was a little bit nervous...But I thought to give this a try..
And It cameout quite good..I am giving you step by step recipe for this...So you too can prepare it at home..
This recipe is really simple to make and it taste great..Traditionally they serve it piping hot with some milk poured on top..It taste divine..
If you have never heard about jalebi, it is a deep fried Indian sweet which is then drenged in sweet sugar syrup..It taste more or like honeycomb..Yes HONEYCOMB...
So here you go...

Heat oil for deep frying..
Now take the jalebi batter and spoon it in the piping bag and pipe it in hot oil..

i tried this recipe, the taste was great but the jelabi's weren't crisp 🙁 is there any special care to be take while preparing this recipe other than the oil temperature? and i substituted cornflour for rice flour, was that the wrong step?
