Rice Pakora

HOW TO MAKE RICE PAKORA RECIPE

• ▢
  Mash the cooked rice thoroughly by hand. Take a mixing bowl. Add the mashed rice, onion besan, green chilies, coriander powder, cumin powder, chaat masala, grated ginger, asafetida, coriander leaves and salt and mix well.
• ▢
  Set aside for 10-15 minutes. If the mixture is too dry, add 2-3 tablespoons of water as required to make the mixture little soft and mix well.
• ▢
  Heat oil in a deep bottomed pan on a medium flame. Once the oil becomes hot, slide the mixture gently with your hand or with the help of a spoon.
• ▢
  Deep fry the pakoras till light brown and crunchy. Remove them in an absorbent towel or tissue paper to remove excess oil.
• ▢
  Serve rice pakoras hot with tomato sauce or any chutney of your choice. NOTES : You can add red chili powder instead of green chilies. Mashing the rice helps to get soft pakoras.
