Three women in one dress. Be it a bazaar or fair festival in the village. Even at weddings and pujapaths, they take thela and cook jerry. Dressed up in clean clothes and make-up, Jalebi cooking attracts many. They are Sita Parajuli, Shanta Khadka and Radha Khanal from Sandhikhark.
Sita and Shanta started cooking jalebi for the second Arghakhanchi festival in Sandhikhark. They became excited after doing good business. Continuing from the second, they cooked jalebi in thela until the sixth festival which lasted from February 12 to January 12.
'I learned how to cook jalebi from my parents at an early age,' Sita said, 'There was a small shop in the village, where my parents used to cook and sell jalebi. He taught me by selling the same jalebi, now I have also sent my children by doing the same thing.'
He has two sons. In a span of about 5 years, their jalebi has taken the form of a brand in Sandhikharak. In most of the pious deeds and wedding feasts in the market and village, they cook jalebi in thela. He cooks jalebi in the hot bazaar on Tuesdays and Fridays during Sandhikhark.
Dressed in equally attractive costumes, the hard work of making jalebis in baskets entices even those who plan not to eat, buy jalebis for those at home. Ramita viewers are also the same. In the
market, jalebi is sold at Rs. 320 per kg and Rs. 20 per piece. "Sita and I consulted, bought goods and sold them in baskets," said Shanta, "six years ago today." first-first When I cooked jalebi and Sita sold it, I made a profit of 5/500 rupees after raising the investment. We were very happy. After that, she always started carrying baskets when there was a bazaar and a fair.
Since then, they have been working together. 'We buy flour, sugar and oil together,' she said, 'In a day, if we invest ten/twelve thousand, thirty/thirty-two thousand are traded. Cooking jalebi in thela for 7/8 days in a month earns around 25,000 rupees per person.' With this income, Sita and Shanta have raised the education and household expenses of their two sons. When there are weddings, pujas, associations, and political party events in Sadarmukam and villages, the organizers look for Sita, Shanta and Radha.
When the organizers invite to cook jalebi, they get paid. From haat bazaars, fairs and festivals to weddings, pujapaths and organization events, they carry their baskets. Radha sometimes helps Sita and Shanta.
"I felt a hunger to do something instead of spending my days watching Tik Tok and mobile at home," Shanta said, "Before cooking jilebi, I did various small businesses. Now when we do business together, jalebi made us happy.' Now they reach anywhere from cities to villages. Jalebi is also added to food dishes during feasts and events.
After eating, the guests return home with a cute face. Many praise Jalebi as good and delicious. "Even if it is a small enterprise with a small investment, we are independent," said Sita, "rather than sitting in a room, after doing some work, you will get money and your mind will be calm." With the income from jalebi, we have helped my husband in the house business.'
They cook and sell jalebi in baskets. "This is the profession that we enjoy," said Shanta, "As long as we are able to work, we continue to make jalebis wherever we go in the village/city." Jalebi is the introduction of our profession.
