Restaurant describes jalebi as 'mysterious pretzel-shaped fried waffles'; internet goes frenzy

One of the most popular and favourite desserts for Indians would be a plate full of hot and crispy jalebis served best with snacks. While it continues to remain ingrained in Indian culture and traditions for a long time and is served on festivals and special occasions, jalebis are also popular in many other Asian countries besides the Middle East and parts of Africa. It is generally made with gram flour or maida batter, dipped in saffron-infused sugar syrup, however, people in different places prepare the dish with their own set of unique ingredients. Jalebis are also given different names in different countries.

With that said, one such unique name has now come up from a restaurant, seemingly in Pakistan where the menu describes jalebis as “mysterious” fried waffles. Taking to Twitter, a user named Daisy Rockwell shared a picture of the dessert page from the menu. As we take a closer look at the menu, jalebi has been described as “Mysterious crispy pretzel shaped fried waffles soaked in a rose water syrup.”
