Serves: 15 nos

Prep time: 10 Minutes

Cook time: 5 Minutes

Total time: 15 Minutes

INGREDIENTS

To make the batter Mixed millet flour - 1/3 cup Gram flour - 1/4 cup Rice flour – 1 tbsp Big onion - 2 nos ( medium ) Red chilli powder - 1/2 tsp Hing/Asafetida - 2 pinches Finely chopped green chillies - 1 no Curry leaves - few Coriander leaves – few Mint leaves – few  Ginger - 1/2 inch piece Hot oil - 1 tbsp Ghee – 1/2 tsp ( I used frozen ghee) Water – Very little ( say 1.5 tbsp) Salt – as needed Cooking oil - to deep fry

METHOD

Wash and slice big onions thinly.Wash and chop ginger,green chillies,mint,curry leaves,coriander leaves & set aside. In a wide bowl,take all the ingredients except cooking oil and ghee.Mix all the ingredients well without adding water.Onions will leave water while u mix.So mix everything together. Heat oil to deep fry.Take a tbsp of hot oil  and add to the flour.Add ghee.Mix well.Then sprinkle few drops of water and make a dough. Put a drop of batter & check the heat of oil.If  the batter comes up immediately,oil is ready.Reduce the flame to medium high & pinch in a portion of batter and drop in the oil in a sprinkled manner. Cook till onions turn golden brown.Remove in a tissue and enjoy eating hot with tea !

Note

Gram flour is used for binding and rice flour for crispiness. You can follow the above recipe and make pakodas with kambu maavu or thinai too. Hot oil is added to give crispy pakoda.Don’t skip it.Ghee is for softness.

Enjoy this crispy millet onion pakoda with tea/coffee ! Tastes yum !!
