👩‍🍳 How to make Puri Jalebi Breakfast Combo

Mix maida, yogurt, turmeric, and salt to make a smooth batter (consistency like pancake batter)
Let batter rest 30 minutes at room temperature (fermentation helps crispness)
In a separate pan, dissolve 150g sugar in 200ml water by heating (takes 3-4 minutes)
Once sugar dissolves, remove from heat
Add lemon juice and saffron water to syrup
Add red food color if desired
Let syrup cool to room temperature (it will thicken slightly—should be like honey consistency)
Heat oil to 175°C in a wok or deep pan
Prepare jalebi mold (funnel with spiral tip) or use a squeeze bottle with a small round nozzle
Fill mold with batter
When oil is hot enough (test: small piece of batter should sizzle immediately and float within 3 seconds)
Hold mold 8-10cm above oil surface
Squeeze batter in spiral pattern to create coil about 8-10cm diameter
Make 2-3 spirals in oil (don't crowd pan)
Fry 5-6 seconds until batter sets and turns light golden
Using tongs or slotted spoon, flip jalebi carefully
Fry 5-6 seconds on reverse side until evenly golden
Remove to a tray (not paper towel—syrup will soak through)
Immediately dip hot jalebi into cooled syrup for 2-3 seconds
Place syrup-soaked jalebi on a plate
Repeat for remaining batter
Jalebi hardens slightly as it cools, but stays crispy on outside and soft inside

📖 Cultural notes

Serve warm puris with a few hot jalebis on the side. This is a classic sweet breakfast combination. ---
