Apple Jalebi – Apple Fritter

Apple Jalebis are fritters soaked in rosy fragrant syrup! Apple Jalebi  are yum, crispy and delicious 🙂 ….. The thought of dipping fruit into batter frying them and soaking into sweet syrup really excites me. I had made Apple Jalebi  for my friend Shampoo I was suppose to visit his house with my mom. So I thought of making Apple Rabdi and Apple Jalebi for him. I was satisfied as he really relished and ate them all.

Apple Jalebi recipe has been lying in my drafts for 2 months now. Guess when I was single ;). Wonder what took so long to post this recipe. Sometimes I wonder there are so much stuff lying in our mail drafts, office mail drafts and other drafts.

Post marriage I have been missing my parents and pet a lot. Soon I will go and meet them. I am very attached to my pet and so is she. Just wanna go and hug her back. Also stay with my parents a few days. Waiting for that moment.

Anyways lemme not make you emotional let’s de stress ourselves with cooking Apple Jalebis! the best part is you can eat these Apple Jalebi  as warm Or chilled.
