- 1. Onion – 1 (medium sized)
- 2. Besan flour – 1 cup
- 3. Rice flour – ½ cup
- 4. Green chilli – 1
- 5. Chopped curry leaves – ½ tbsp
- 6. Salt – to taste
- 7. Hot oil – 1 tbsp
- 8. Oil – for frying
- 9. Water – required amount
- * 1 cup = 235 ml
- Heat oil in a frying pan. In a bowl add thinly sliced onions, besan flour, rice flour, chopped green chilli, curry leaves, salt and hot oil. Mix well.
- Now add water gradually to form the onion pakoda batter. The batter should be crumbly. (I used less than 1/3 cup water to make crumbly batter).
- Now spread the crumbly batter in oil using fingers. Does not require any particular shape. Fry them in medium flame flame until crunchy and light golden color. When done remove it using slotted spoon and transfer it to a paper towel and serve it hot with chai/ tea! Repeat the process till all the crumbly batter is over!
