We can't overlook jalebis while discussing desi desserts. These golden, coiled delicacies are crafted from a batter of flour, yoghurt, and sugar, then deep-fried to perfection. Once fried, they are immersed in a sugary syrup before serving. And just like the rest of us, Bollywood stars also love these sugary delights. In his recent Instagram post, veteran actor Anupam Kher is not savouring, but making jalebis. Yes, you read that correctly. In the video, Anupam Kher is holding a cloth filled with batter and creating jalebi coils in hot oil. A chef standing beside Anupam is guiding him through the process. Sharing the reel, Anupam Kher writes, "Always wanted to try my hand at making Jalebi!! Never imagined that It is tough to go round and round. But I had fun!"
