Jalebi Recipe | How to make crispy Jalebi at home

Jalebi is the Indian sweet that is spiral round in looking dunk in the sugar syrup. Every person has different opinions about the serving of the Jalebi. Some places in India serve Jalebi with Poha, and Fafda (Gujarati snack) for breakfast, and some serve Jalebi with Rabri and that combination is my favorite.

I love Rabri Jalebi, Once you have it, it becomes an addiction. Jalebi is sweet that’s why it is preferred for breakfast in some places because that gives you energy for the whole day. But according to me, it is just sweet just like other sweets that you can have any time you want.




Jalebi is commonly available in the Mithai (Sweet) shop and also sells on the carts. You will hardly find anyone who doesn’t like Jalebi. It is so crispy, juicy, and tasty. Here I am going to share a recipe for crispy Jalebi at home. Honestly, this is the first time that we have tried Jalebi at home. You can easily make it by yourself but before making Jalebi at home there are some tips that you should always keep in mind:

  • The batter of Jalebi should be neither thick nor thin. If the batter is too thick then there will be no crispness in the jalebi, it becomes soggy. If the batter is too thin, that would be difficult to get that perfect spiral round shape of the Jalebi.
  • You can also use the squeezy tomato ketchup bottle for putting the batter in the desi ghee but there I am using a simple plastic packet.
  • The syrup of the Jalebi should be one string otherwise jalebi will not absorb the syrup and would not give the juicy flavor. You should always dunk Jalebi in warm syrup.
  • Fermenting of jalebi batter also depends on the temperature of your city. Here I am making Jalebi in the summer season so it doesn’t take a lot of time in fermentation. But in the winter season it takes 12-13 hours in fermentation. In the winter season it takes more time to ferment and vice versa.
