Cabbage Pakora/Cabbage Fritters - Virtual Birthday Treat for Divya



Today is a special and its birthday for one of blogger buddy Divya of Divya's Culinary Journey.To celebrate her birthday we group of friends planned to do a virtual treat.So we decided to share dishes from starter to dessert and I opted to share starter cum snack.
Usually pakoras are made with gram flour aka besan but this is a slightly different one with the soaked bengal gram dhal (channa dhal) and urad dhal.The pakoras came out very well and it was so soft even after cooling as urad dhal is used.
These pakoras can be eaten as snack as well as an accompaniment for rice dishes like sambar and rasam rice.
This recipe I noted down from a regional television show and tried it for the first time.Now off to the recipe.......................................


Basic Information

Soaking time 3 4 hours
Preparation Time 20 minutes
Cooking Time 20-25 minutes
Serves 2-3

Onion(finely chopped)1 (medium size)
Curry leaves/karivepillai1 sprig(chopped)

Oilfor deep frying



Method

Rinse the dhals for couple of time in water and soak it together for overnight or at least 3-4 hours.Grind it along with green chilly,salt and ginger to a fine paste with water as needed.(Do not add too much of water,I used around 1/4 cup).


Transfer the ground paste to a bowl and to this add the chopped onion,curry leaves,coriander leaves,shredded cabbage.Mix it well and keep it aside.


Heat oil in a frying pan and once it becomes hot take a handful of batter and pinch it into the oil.Fry it in a medium flame till the sizzling sound ceases and becomes golden.Remove it from the oil and drain it on a paper towel.


Serve it with ketchup or chutney of your choice.


Enjoy......................................................




  • If the dough becomes little runny add some besan/gram flour to adjust the consistency.
  • Addition of onion is purely optional.
  • Fry it in the oil in a medium flame to get a nice golden color.

Rava Kozhukattai/Rava Pidi kozhukattai

For the alphabet R,I decided to make something with rava aka semolina.But I have blogged most of the  rava recipes  in Tamil cuisine. When I was going through the cook books and hand written recipes,rava kozhukattai caught my attention. The method of making this kozhukattai is same as  upma kozhukattai ,whereas rava/semolina is used instead of rice.Both sweet and savory versions can be made with semolina.As we had lot of sweet dishes in the previous week I made the savory version.Soon share the sweet version.This is a great option for evening snack and I served with coconut chutney.Lets move on to the  recipe............                                                                                          ...

My kids love homemade breads and buns a lot.Especially if its cinnamon flavor its a real treat for them.So made two small loaves  of pull apart bread ,the loaf has come out so well and the house was filled with the aroma of cinnamon. The bread tasted awesome and I had half of the loaf as soon as I finished taking the picture.Rest of the loaves were gobbled by my kids.I made the bread dough with 4.5 cups and  divided the dough to make another savory roll.The given measurement makes a 8 ½ x 4 ½ loaf,off to the recipe......                                                                                           ...
