    Re: how do you make pakoras?

    Methi Pakoras

    Ingredients

    1 bunch of Methi leaves.
    1 small bunch of Cilantro leaves
    3 to 4 Chillies minced
    1 tablespoon Red Chilli powder
    1/4 tablespoon Haldi powder
    1 cup Wheat Flour
    1-1/2 cup Besan
    1/4 tablespoon Cooking Soda
    2-3 tablespoons of Curd .(you can add more if you want)
    1/2 tablespoon Sugar
    1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
    Salt to taste

    Method:


    Wash and clean the methi leaves and cilantro leaves and chop them.
    In a bowl add cut leaves and all the above ingredients except the soda and make a batter. See to it that the batter should be the one like you make vadas , it should not be thin otherwise you won't be able to fry the pakoras. You can add a little water to make it thin. But not very thin remember.
    You can add 1-1/2 tablespoon of oil in the batter and mix the soda and stir it very well.
    Put oil in a kadai and make small balls with hand just the way you fry any pakoras and fry it till crispy brown.
    Serve hot with cilantro chutney. Enjoy.
