Method
-
If using raw peanuts, just dry roast in medium flame for 3 mins, not more than that.
-
Let it cool, meanwhile prepare the batter.
-
Powder the split roasted gram.
-
Mix all the dry ingredients then add butter and make crumbled mixture.
-
Now sprinkle water to form a soft stiff dough (as shown)
-
Finally add roasted peanuts and mix gently as shown.
-
If not stick to the dough just sprinkle or wet ur hand and mix gently.
-
Some of the peanut skins may peel or split, that’s normal.
-
Heat oil for deep fry and in low flame sprinkle the mixture as much u can.
-
Don’t add in lumps, if doing so tends to uncooked inner dough, so try to separate well.
-
While sprinkling some peanuts may separate, nothing to worry…
-
Increase the flame to medium n fry till golden brown.
-
While taking out from the pan, increase the flame to high and take it out.
-
Thats it very crispy pakodas are ready in less than 30mins.
tasty and healthy palli pokodi
