Jhangri recipe




Ingredients:


Urad dal - 1 cup

Orange food colour - 2 or 3 pinch

Sugar - 2 cups

Rice flour - 1 tbsp

Cardamom powder - 1/2 tsp

Oil - for frying



Method:


  • Soak Urad dal for 2 hours. 
  • Drain excess water and grind dal to a fine thick batter. ( Do not add excess water while grinding. The batter should be thick ).
  • Dissolve food colour in 1 tsp water.
  • Transfer the grinded dal to a bowl along with rice flour and food colour. Make it to a fine smooth paste.
  • Add sugar and 1/2 cup water in a heavy bottomed vessel and make sugar syrup. When it comes to one string consistency switch off the flame, add cardamom powder and stir.
  • In a heavy bottomed pan heat oil. 
  • To make Jhangris you can use ordinary zip lock bag with a small hole in the middle or the pastry bag.
  • I used only zip lock bag to make this. Pipe Jhangris by starting off with two close circles and pipe small rings around those circles.
  • If the oil pan is wide, you can make 4 or 5 jhangris at a time. Turn both sides and cook jhangris well.


  • Remove the excess oil from fried jhangris and add to the hot sugar syrup immedietely.
  • Let the Jhangris soak in sugar syrup for 4 or 5 min. Then tranfer it to a plate.
  • Continue the same procedure with rest of the batter.
  • Do not make the batter to rest for a long time since it will become sour. 
  • Enjoy hot and delicious jhangris.
