syrup soaked

PROCEDURE:
Take a vessel and add maida, cornflour, baking soda amd mix well, now add yoghurt and churn it well, make is a paste, not so thin, not so thick, it should be like a cream cake batter. Now add ghee to it and mix it well. Keep it overnight untouched for fermentation.
As its done next day initially prepare sugar syrup by heating water, sugar in equal amounts and then adding a pinch of saffron to it to give jalebi a colour.
Now stir the batter just once or twice, do not over stir, place the batter in a fat clothing with a little hole to it, or can place it inside a thick packet, and make a small hole to it.
Now as its done keep aside and heat enough oil in a pan, its better if you can use flat bottomed pan, else even wok will work.
Let oil be heated well, now simmer the gas mode and our jalebi is ready to be fried, check by dropping little batter, if it immediately floats then our oil is ready.
Now with the help of packet which has hole, pour it into oil by giving it a shape of concentric circles, fry it on both sides, many like it crispy brown, many like it slightly fried.
Now as our jabeli is fried as we desire to, strain it out and place it into syrup and let it soak in syrup for a minute and then remove it from syrup, if kept in syrup for longer then jalebis will become soft and will lose its crispyness.
Now serve hot hot jalebi as dessert and enjoy it.
