Ingredients for Imarti:
1. Black gram dal – 250 gm soaked
2. Saffron colour -2 gm
3. Sugar – 250 gm
Water – 1.5 cups
4. Cardamom powder – ½ small spoon
5. Ghee – 1 big spoon
Oil – 1 litre
How to prepare Imarti?
1. Add a little water to black gram and grind it. Batter should have a thick consistency.
2. Beat it well to adjust the consistency. When you put a drop of batter in water, it should not sink; it should float.
3. Add food colour and allow it to rest for 3-4 hours. The batter should rise.
4. Add water to the sugar and boil it on a low flame.
5. When it turns thread-like, turn off the flame and add cardamom.
6. Mix ghee and oil and boil in a pan.
7. Use a piping bag or put a small hole in a cloth piece and pour batter into it.
8. Squeeze the batter into hot oil in jalebi shapes. Make two layers.
9. Reduce the flame, and when one side turns crisp, flip once and cook the other side too.
10. Put it in hot sugar syrup and take it out after 3-4 minutes.
11. Continue the process for the remaining jalebis.
