1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tbsp cornflour
1/2 cup yogurt
1/4 tsp turmeric
1 tsp ghee
Water as required
1 cup sugar
1/4 tsp cardamom powder
1/2 tsp lemon juice
Mix flour, cornflour, yogurt, and turmeric in a bowl. Add water to make thick and smooth batter.
Cover the batter and ferment for 8-10 hours or overnight in a warm place.
Heat water and sugar until sugar dissolves and add cardamom powder. Let it simmer to thicken.
Heat oil in a pan and pipe jalebis into the oil in spiral shapes. Make sure oil is moderately hot, not too hot.
Once jalebis are fried, immediately dip into sugar syrup and let soak for 30 to 60 minutes. Keep sugar syrup on low flame.
Drain the excess syrup and serve warm and crispy jalebis.
