Jalebis (Deep-Fried Pretzel-Shaped Sweets)
JALEBIS
3 cup Flour, all-purpose
1/4 cup Flour, rice
1/4 tsp Baking powder
2 cup Water, lukewarm
SYRUP
4 cup Sugar, granulated
3 cup Water, cold
1/8 tsp Cream of tartar
2 tsp Food coloring, yellow
1/8 tsp Food coloring, red
1 tsp Rose water
each Oil, vegetable
Batter: In deep bowl, make a smooth batter of the flours, baking
powder and lukewarm water. Let batter rest unrefrigerated and
uncovered 12 hours.
Syrup: Immediately before frying the jalebis, combine sugar, cold
water and cream of tarter in 4 qt. saucepan. Stir over moderate heat
until sugur dissolves. Increase heat to high and cook briskly,
undisturbed for 5 minutes, until 220F on a candy thermometer. Remove
from heat, stir in coloring and rose water. Pour into a bowl and set
aside.
Jalebis: Pour 3 cups vegetable oil into a 10" karhai or 12" wok or
into a deep fryer to 2-3 inches. Heat oil to 350F. Spoon 1 1/2 cups
of the batter into a pastry bag fitted with a plain tube 3/16"
diameter. Squeezing batter directly into hot oil, loop a stream of
batter back and forth 4-5 times to form a sort of pretzel made up of
alternating figure 8s and circles, one over the other. Each jalebi
should be about 3" long and 2" wide.
In batches of 5-6, fry the jalebis for 2 minutes, or until golden
on both sides. As they brown, transfer them to the syrup for a
minute, then place them on a plate. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Weight loss hints and tips
If your aim is to become thinner and increase your overall healthfulness, then, as most people know, you need to start a specially configured sound weight loss program. If possible, this need to contain 5 portions of fruit/vegetables on a daily basis and embrace an appropriate mixture of fats, carbs and proteins.
When buying food, dieters ordinarily pick out supermarket and branded products claiming to be 'low-fat'. This is most certainly incorrect, since a food item can be reduced in fats, but still contain far too many carbs & calories.
When devising a nutrition system, you have to also try to decrease your consumption of salt, fats and refined carbohydrates.
