Jalebi is one of the most popular desserts in India. Although it is a deep-fried food fermentation process makes it somewhat healthy.
It is not only delicious and easy to prepare but also required very few noes of ingredients i.e. with 3 ingredients you can make a delicious mouthwatering dessert.
Nowadays there are so many brands of instant Jalebi mix are available in the market but jalebi made with the authentic process is the most delicious and satisfying.
Ingredients
- Refined wheat flour 500 gms
- Sugar to make sugar syrup
- Refined vegetable oil for deep frying.
Procedure
- If you want to have this mouthwatering dessert you have to start preparing a day in advance. Its preparation starts with making a batter with refined wheat flour and water.
- The batter should be thick and for 500 gm flour, I used about 600 ml water to make a smooth lump-free batter.
- Cover it with a cloth and keep a warm place for 12 hours. In summer it will be ready in 12 hours while in winter it may take double time. It all depends on the temperature.

| Batter before fremantation | Batter after fermentation |
- When the batter will be ready you can smell a pleasant aroma from it. Mix it well.
- At this stage, you can add food colour but I added a little turmeric powder, but it is completely optional.
- Make sugar syrup with 500 gm sugar and about 300 ml water.
- Heat the oil in a heavy bottom flat pan.
- Fill this batter in Jalebi Maker and make jalebi in the hot oil.
- Fry till become light brown from both sides. It should be crisp.
- Soak in sugar syrup for a couple of minutes and take then it out from the syrup.
Serve it hot and can garnish with dry fruits and rose petals.
You are great chef.
Cooking is just my hobby and I am learning every day! Thanks for the kind words.
Looks sooo delicious. It's the first time I've heard about Jalebi. Thanks for sharing this amazing dessert. I would like to try it at home. But I don't have Jalebi maker. Can I use something else such as a cake decorating tool or maybe a ketchup bottle? 🙂
Yes, ketchup bottle is same Jalebi maker. Try this recipe and share your experiences with us. Thanks.
Me and my daughter are die hard fans of Jalebi 😀 need to check, from where we get this Jalebi Maker....That is the key ingredient, we tried some other solutions but failed.
Jalebi maker is nothing but a plastic bottle with nozzle or ketchup dispenser.
That's what we tried, with a ketchup bottle, but it did not work.
There are two things first the batter should not be too thin and nozzle should not be wide. It works.

I love jalebis, thanks for sharing your preparation with us. Although the ingredients are simple, something like this requires attention to preparation technique, such as making sure the oil is not too hot or cool. Nice work as always chef!
