With the fitness fervour gripping the youth of Kanpur, the market of wholesome alternatives of traditional cuisines is booming. Dessert connoisseurs are on a constant lookout for delectable dishes that allay cravings while contributing the least fat percentage to the human body. Consequently, Paneer Jalebis have found a place in the hearts and on the palates of dessertarians who also like to keep their calories in check!

Made from mashed paneer and milk, Paneer Jalebi is a culinary delight that serves as a wholesome alternative to the traditional maida-based jalebis. Other than the difference in ingredients used, the cooking process of these two kinds of jalebis stands in quite a contrast.

Speaking to us about the preparation steps of this saccharine delight, Mr. Ankit Gupta, the owner of Rahul Sweets, says, “Paneer Jalebi is fried in desi ghee on a low flame. Cooking it on high flame turns the jalebi black in colour and it also becomes soggy.” He further adds that, unlike the traditional jalebi which is for immediate consumption, this sweetmeat can be consumed within 48-72 hours of its preparation as it doesn’t lose its taste and crispness easily.
