Here goes my elo jhelo in kadai....
Fried nimkis before dipped in syrup
Prepare syrup in a broad based vessel by pouring water and sugar. Bring it to boil till the syrup thickens to produce bubbles. The syrup will reduce to almost half. Add the ello jhelo at this point and keep stirring gently (make sure you don't break them) so that the now thickening syrup gets completely coated to the contents impartingjdjddddddddddjhhdhdhdhhjhhhfhhdfhddhh a whitish texture to it. Put off the flame and let it cool and store in an air tight box.
User Comments & Tips:
- While frying keep the flame low and keep flipping the elo jhelo will result in evenly fry.
- Over heating the syrup will lead to dryness and you will not get desired results in coating the fried elo jhelos.
