To burn it off
Jalebi are spirals of batter, deep fried until crisp and soaked in sugar syrup. They are a Diwali sweet and a street breakfast across India and Pakistan, often eaten hot.
A portion is about 380 kcal, with 60 g of carbs, 15 g of fat and 3 g of protein. The frying adds the fat, the syrup the sugar.
In the UK you find them at Indian sweet shops in Leicester, Southall and Bradford, piled up bright orange behind the glass.
Tips
- 1Have two spirals instead of a full plate. They are very sweet, so two do the job.
- 2Eat them hot and fresh. A cold one is a waste of 380.
