    Mr Rajiv don't you dip your jalebis in the syrup?

    Curd is 'yogurt' or in Indian language its 'Dahin'

    I think this recipe is incomplete, since there is no mention of how to make the sugar syrup in which you are supposed to dip the Jalebi. I think you have to boil the mixture of water and sugar till it comes to a boil and then dip the fried Jalebi in this syrup which is kept warm.
