Ragi Pakoda Pakora , The color may be dark brown but very crispy and perfect tea time snack which can be prepared in jiffy. I assure it won’t absorb much oil. One fine day during our newlywed period, my husband asked me to prepare this snack, but I haven’t heard it before. Suddenly he called his mom and I got the recipe over phone. Nowadays I prepare this when the weather is rainy and cold. But as this is one among the quick disappearing snack my family members never allow me to even take a quick picture of it. Somehow recently prepared before their arrival and managed to upload with video at the bottom of the post 🙂

Good Old Post which reminds our apartment life , updated with video tutorial 🙂

Notes

Adding Rice flour is optional but definetely you get crispy pakoras.
Making crumbly mixture with less water tends to get more crispy pakoda.
Do split the mixture in oil as shown to get crispy texture.
If like to get soft pakoda, prepare the mixture a bit watery or skip rice flour and use gram flour to suppress the crispness.
