Hi everyone...hmm soon it's going to be winter and it will be awesome if we have a something hot,spicy, crispy snack to eat during this weather and today lets see how to make a crispy and spicy "ONION PAKODAS".


Come on lets see the ingredients we need to make this yummy snack,

Ingredients:

1-Large Onion.
1/2-Cup Chickpeas flour/Gram dal flour/Kadele ittu.
2-3 Tbsp-Rice Flour.
1-Pinch of baking Soda(Generous Pinch).
6 or more-Green Chili.
Oil-For deep fry.
6-Strands of cilantro/coriander leaves.
1-Strands curry leaves.
15-20-Cashews(Optional).
Salt to taste.

Method:

1.Cut the onions,green chili into thin,long slices.



2.In a mixing bowl add onions,green chilies,finely chopped cilantro,curry leaves,baking soda,cashews,salt and mix well,to this add chickpeas flour,rice flour,2 tbsp of hot oil and mix well add 1-2Tbsp of water if only needed make sure the mix is thick not thin.



3.In a frying pan add the oil required for frying and let the oil heat for about 5 mins,once after the oil is hot now fry the pakodas,try to keep the size thin and fry on a medium heat until they are golden brown.






4.You can eat this with Ketchup.

Things to Note:

1.If you are adding Cashews soak them in the water for about 5 mins so that the cashews wont get fried before onions.

2.Add the salt before frying,because adding salt before will make water to ooze out and pokodas wont be crispy.

3.Rice flour,baking soda and adding hot oil while mixing makes the pakodas crispy.

Enjoy the spicy and crispy onion pakodas.
