Re: Recipes from Aaj Kiya Pakaya/Khaya

Jalebi by Chips6

INGREDIENTS:
*1 cup flour
*1/2 cup rice flour
*3-4 tablespoons yogurt
*a pinch of baking soda
*the recipe called for 1/4tsp cream of tartar ,but I did not have that so i never used it
*yellow food color

Mix all and put in a plastic bag with a small hole in the corner so that u can pour it in hot oil

SUGAR SYRUP:
*3 cups sugar
*enough water so that when u heat the sugar and water it is very thick in consistency...if it will be thin the jalebis will turn soggy
*add green cardamoms,some rose water and saffron thread to the sugar syrup...
i ruined the first few ones as i let them sit in sugar syrup for too long...just be careful not to oversoak them
