Have you ever tried baking pakodas? these guilt free pakodas are seriously super crispy and definitely addictive.I have already tried baking my all time favourite onion pakodas whenever i crave for them. But for my last day of blogging marathon, i wanted to make something special and a super nutty pakodas.Cashews i just love them, since i became a health nut am avoiding cashews in my gravies eventhough i came back from India with 4kgs of cashews. These baked pakodas turned out simply awesome and fantastic. A prefect evening snack to enjoy with a cup of hot masala tea, i just used few drops of oil for baking apart from it,these pakodas are completely oil-less.

Got a question, does besan bake well? I heard rice flour doesn't, any particular kind of besan you used? Love the color of your pakodas...awesome idea Priya.
ReplyDeleteLove these beautifully baked pakodas. Have bookmarked this recipe too..
ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteI visit your blog regularly and love it. I have not tried any recipes but decided to try the baked pakodas and they turned out good. I added 1tbsp oil to the mix. The besan still have slight smell but I am happy with the overall taste. Thank you for sharing the recipe. My next try will be the gulab jamun.
Thanks once again.
Nice idea. And they look as good as the fried ones!
ReplyDeleteThis is one of my favorite. but it has been ages since i had it last. Love love the baked version.. Very inviting..
