Jilebi (South Indian Style)


Ingredients:
  • Urud dal 1 cup
  • Sugar 2 cup
  • Water 1¼ cup
  • Orange Food Colour a pinch
  • Rose water 1 Tbsp
  • Oil

Soak urud dal for 1 hr and grind it into a fluffy batter by adding very little amount of water. Transfer it into a bowl and add a pinch of kesari colour. Meanwhile, prepare the sugar syrup by boiling sugar and water together. Just make it a little thick (need not be one thread consistency). Add a pinch of food colour and rose water into it and mix well. 

Make a button hole in the middle of a clean cloth and fill it with the batter. Heat oil in a flat vessel or in a frying pan and squeeze the batter into it. Transfer it into the warm sugar syrup and soak it for a few mins. Then remove and arrange it on a serving plate.
