A clip capturing the making of this deadly combo has been shared on Instagram. In the video, the vendor first takes two scoops of batter and pours it into a net cloth. He informs the food blogger filming the video that the batter has been prepared with maida (all-purpose flour) and a portion of besan (gram flour). Next, he pipes out the jalebi batter into a large kadhai with hot oil and lets them cook for a while. The jalebis, which have a unique shape, are then dipped in sugar syrup and served on a leaf with a dollop of fresh curd on top. After tasting, he gives an honest review and says that the jalebi is a little too sweet. Take a look:
