For Chanar Jilipi

For Dough

For The Main Dish

Preparation

Put a deep-bottomed pan on medium flame and add milk in it and bring it to a boil.
While the milk is boiling, add lemon juice in it.
Once the milk curdles up, drain the content through a clean muslin cloth.
Tie the cloth and hang it for 2 hours so that the water completely drains away.
Transfer the cottage cheese to your desired kneading space.
Add all-purpose flour, baking powder and a pinch of salt to the cottage cheese mixture.
Now knead it well until the mixture turns into a smooth dough.
Refrigerate the mixture for about 20 minutes.
Take out small portions of dough, roll out long ropes out of the balls and swirl them up in the form of jalebis.
Now put a pan on medium flame, add ghee and heat.
Once the ghee is sufficiently hot, deep fry, these prepared jalebis in batches.
In the meantime, make the sugar syrup. In a heavy-bottomed pan, add the sugar and water, boil it until you get the desired consistency. Remember, it should neither be very thick nor very thin, a medium consistency is required.
Once done, switch off the flame, soak the fried Chhanar jalebis in sugar syrup for about two to three hours. Enjoy them hot!
