chana dal pakora |
Chana dal pakora was our rainy day treat today. We enjoyed these deep fried goodies with our morning cup of tea. I enjoy chana dal in all forms whether it's curry or along with lauki (bottle gourd) and these pakora are no exception.
Recipe of chana dal pakora/ pakoda
1 cup chana dal (split Bengal gram)
3 green chillies- chopped
Fresh coriander leaves- chopped
A pinch of hing (asafoetida)
Salt to taste
1 onion- finely chopped
1 inch piece ginger- finely chopped
Oil to deep fry
1. Wash and soak chana dal overnight. Drain.
2. Grind chana dal to a smooth paste.
3. Add rest of the ingredients except oil to the chana dal batter. Beat well.
4. Heat oil in a kadhai/wok. When the oil is hot enough, turn the heat to medium. Drop small portions of the batter in the oil. Deep fry till pakora turn golden brown from all sides.
