Everyone loves jalebi, but have you ever thought of adding a twist to your regular jalebi. Now, how does apple jalebi sound? Interesting, right? Apple jalebi is basically rings of apple dipped in a sweet, spiced batter, that's golden-fried, and drenched in saffron-y sugar syrup. The delicious apple jalebi will become your new favourite, once you try it out. Start by slicing apples into perfect rings (because presentation matters), then dunk them in a batter made with flour, yogurt, and a pinch of cardamom for that aromatic vibe. Fry these beauties till they're crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and soak them in sugar syrup infused with saffron and rose water for that iconic jalebi shine. Serve them hot with a dollop of rabri or a sprinkle of pistachios, and watch them disappear faster than you can say “yum.” Whether it's a festive spread or a weekend treat, apple jalebi brings a playful, modern twist to traditional Indian sweets. It's crispy, juicy, syrupy, and downright indulgent—the perfect way to satisfy your sweet tooth while keeping it fresh and fab.

- 2Let's make some magic!
- 3Start by preparing the batter: In a bowl, mix 1 cup of maida, 2 teaspoons of cornflour, 0.5 teaspoon of active dry yeast, 1 tablespoon of ghee, a pinch of salt, and just enough water to form a smooth, lump-free batter. Cover it and let it rest for 30 minutes while the yeast works its magic.
- 4While the batter rests, make the sugar syrup by boiling 1 cup of sugar with 1 cup of water in a saucepan. Add 3 strands of saffron for a luxurious golden hue and 0.5 teaspoon of lemon juice to keep the syrup from crystallizing.
- 5Simmer until it reaches a one-string consistency (sticky but not too thick), then set it aside to cool slightly.
- 6Core and slice 2 medium apples into thin rings—keep the peel for that rustic charm. Pat the apple slices dry to ensure they fry up perfectly crisp.
- 7Heat 0.5 cup of oil in a deep pan over medium heat.
- 8Test the oil by dropping a bit of batter it should sizzle and float to the surface.
- 9Dip each apple ring into the rested batter, ensuring it's evenly coated, and gently slide it into the hot oil.
- 10Fry a few at a time, flipping occasionally, until the apple jalebis are golden and crispy. Drain them on paper towels to remove excess oil.
- 11Immediately dunk the fried apple rings into the warm sugar syrup, letting them soak up all that sticky, saffron-infused goodness. Leave them in for a few seconds, then remove and arrange them on a serving plate. Garnish with slivers of pistachios for that Insta-worthy finishing touch.
