'''Chhena jalebi''', '''Chhena jilapi''' or '''Chhanar jilipi''' is a sweet dish originally from coastal [[Odisha]] in eastern India, a state known for desserts made of [[chhena]]. Its popularity has spread beyond coastal [[Odisha]], [[West Bengal]] and other Eastern regions of the [[Indian subcontinent]].<br />
<br />
==Preparation==<br />
Chhena jilapi are made in a manner very similar to regular [[jalebi]]s which are popular throughout India. However, the basic ingredient is fresh curd cheese called [[chhenna]].<ref>{{cite web |url= http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2012-07-02/travel/32507631_1_odisha-sweet-dish-sugar |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20130201000615/http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2012-07-02/travel/32507631_1_odisha-sweet-dish-sugar |url-status= dead |archive-date= 1 February 2013 |title=Discover Odisha’s ‘sweet’ magic |first=Deepika |last=Sahu|year=2012 |quote=chenna jilapi (A jalebi made with cheese) |work= [[The Times of India]] |access-date=3 July 2012}}</ref><br />
Fresh chhena is thoroughly kneaded and rolled up into shapes similar to pretzels, before being deep fried. The fully fried chhena pretzels are then soaked in a sugary syrup. Chhena jilapis are served either hot or chilled.<br />
