'''Chhena jalebi''' or '''chhena jilapi'''(ଛେନା ଜିଲାପି)is a sweet dish originally from the eastern state of [[Odisha]] in the [[Indian subcontinent]]. It is a dessert made from [[chhena]]. It is popular in Odisha, [[West Bengal]], [[Bangladesh]] 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= https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/travel/ |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= live |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 />
