jalebi

hi friends,this is rashika
i am uploading a popular dessert of my country,bangladesh.
Imaratee and Jalebi (jilebi, Urdu: جلیبی, Hindi: जलेबी, Punjabi: ਜਲੇਬੀ jalebī; Bengali: জিলাপী jilapi; Persian: زولبیا zoolbia) is a popular sweet in countries of the Indian Subcontinent such as India Pakistan Nepal and Bangladesh. It is made by deep-frying batter in a kind of pretzel shape then soaked in syrup.




It is served warm or cold. It has a somewhat chewy texture with a crystallized sugary exterior coating. The sugars get partly fermented which adds flavor to the dish.



A similar sweet is imarti, which is red-orange in color and sweeter in taste, made in many North Indian States [(Uttar Pradeh, Rajasthan, madhya Pradesh and some more)], India. Jalebis in Orissa are also sometimes made of chhena.
