-Mix well the baking powder into the flour.  Add the yoghurt, food colour and mix well.  Add enough water to make the thick smooth batter.

-Fill the batter in a piping bag or cheese cloth in which a hole around 4 mm diameter has been made.

-Heat a 1” layer of fat or ghee in a shallow flat bottom pan.  The ghee should not be too hot.

-Pipe the batter in circles and cross the circle to ensure that the spiral stays together.  Pipe around 4-5 Jalebis at a time Allow the sizzle to die out a little and turn the Jalebis when firm.  Cook on a low flame till the bubbles die out.  Fry to a light golden brown.
