My favourite recipe of all times. Must have tried several version of it. But, of all this is the best. It was with out a doubt super hit and was gone in no time. Make sure to make more of it.
Ingredients:
Flour - 1 Cup
Yogurt - 2/3 Cup
Cornflour - 1/3 Cup
Baking powder - 1 tsp
Oil - 1 tbsp
Saffron - 1 pinch
Sugar - 1 cup
lemon juice - 1/2 tsp
Procedure:
- Mix flour, yogurt, corn flour, baking powder and Saffron in a large bowl. Add enough water and get it to the consistency of Dosa batter or pancake batter.
- Let this batter ferment over night at room temperature
- Dissolve sugar in water and let it boil till we get single thread consistency. Add lemon juice to avoid crystallization and mix well.
- Heat oil in a pan. Take the fermented Jelabi batter in to a piping bag. Once the oil is hot enough, gently pipe the Jelabi batter in to hot oil.
- As the Jelabis get fried on both sides, remove from hot oil and drop them gently in to sugar syrup.
- After soaking for about one minute, remove and serve.
Enjoy while they are hot!!
