Fafda Jalebi | Breakfast Recipe | Gujarati Snack | फाफडा जलेबी | Pankaj Bhadouria Sometimes regional Snacks gain international recognition thanks to a fictitious screen character like the Fafda Jalebi! Fafda Jalebi is a popular Gujarati breakfast combination. It has become immensely popular thanks to the character of Jetha Lal from ‘Tarak Mehta ka Ulta Chashma’, a popular TV Comedy soap where he is always eager to get Fafda Jalebi for breakfast! Fafda is also served with a raw papaya chutney called Sambaryo. But as a pairing, I feel Fafda Jalebi is the best combination of Sweet & Salty. There is also a tradition of eating Fafda Jalebi on the festival of Dussehra. I have shared over here the authentic way to make Fafda but the Jalebi recipe is an Instant Jalebi that requires no presoaking of the batter. Try out this delicious combo of Fafda Jalebi this Sunday at home!
