I have tasted this pakoda in many functions and I have never made it myself. 10 years ago when I visited one of my husband’s friend’s house for lunch, she made this pakoda. I had tasted it after quite sometime. I have taken the recipe from her. She made it with Roasted gram dal powder and it tasted better (before I remember besan flour taste). I have prepared cut curry leaves, coriander leaves but I forgot about it (in fact I noticed it only when I was editing the video). I prefer to add small onion but you can add normal onion too.
Ingredients:
Roasted gram dal powder – 1 cup
Rice flour – 2 tablespoon
Besan Flour – 2 tablespoon
Salt to taste
Ginger paste – 1/4 teaspoon
Garlic paste – 1 teaspoon (Optional)
Small onion – 10 (chopped Roughly)
Cumin seeds – 1 teaspoon
Curry leaves – 10 (chopped finely)
Coriander leaves – 2 teaspoon (chopped finely)
Salt to taste
Ghee – 1/2 teaspoon
Hing / Asafoetida – 1 generous pinch
Oil for deep frying
Method:
Take all the ingredients except oil for deep frying in a wider bowl. Add water little by little & make stiff and soft dough
Take a small portion of dough and make a marble size balls. Make sure there is no crack.
Heat oil in a pan and place balls make sure you have enough space to cook them. Turn them gently at regular interaval. Cook till all sides are cooked (till golden brown).
Drain extra oil and remove it. Place it on kitchen tissue paper to drain extra oil.
Serve hot
