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.......................................

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.

  • 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.

Sweet Adai /Inippu Adai

Today is the final day for the Cooking Carnival in mega Blogging Marathon edition ans I like to end the series with a sweet note. Coming to the recipe its a sweet adai which is often made in our households for quick neivedhyam for offering to god..So many variations can be made using wheat flour,maida,ragi flour and sometimes with semolina. Today's version I used both wheat and all purpose flour along with rice flour.Since sweetener is used to make the batter this adai needs to be cooked in a medium flame,otherwise the color will turn dark.Here I used jaggery,even palm sugar and brown sugar can also be used.                                                                                                                                                                                                                      Sweet Adai/Inippu Adai                                                                         Basic Information    Pre
