Apple Jalebi | Sweet Recipe

Apple Jalebi, a quick and easy to make sweet recipe with apples. I had seen this recipe long back on manjula's kitchen, even since i wondered how would it taste and also wanted to give a try. 
At last, a year back i tried this sweet for the first time and we really enjoyed it. The sourness from the apple while eating this jalebi exactly reminded me about the slight sourness from the traditional jalebi(do check out the traditional jalebi recipe also, one of the popular post in my blog and turned out so good each time.), guess that's why they named this dish as "Apple Jalebi".

 If you're looking for some indian flavored sweet recipe with apples, then do give it a try, you won't be disappointed for sure. 

This jalebi becomes little bit soggy when it's cooled down, so I would recommend to fry as many apple slices as you want at a time and refrigerate the remaining(apples, batter and sugar syrup).

Fry them whenever needed and then slightly reheat the syrup and dip the fried apples in it, that way ,it give you crispy and tasty apple jalebis every time!!! 

Now let's check out the recipe for this yummy Apple Jalebis.

Notes:

  • Sugar syrup should be warm while adding the fried apples, it helps to absorb the syrup easily.
  • If the sugar syrup becomes cold & not absorbed by apples well in between then slightly warm them.
  • Instead of saffron flavor, you can cardamom flavor too.
