Palak Onion Pakodas

One more deep fried snacks i bookmarked n tried from Mahima' s blog...I love pakodas, once i saw this palak pakodas in her blog, i started really craving for these pakodas...But i was out of stock of fresh spinach leaves instead of fresh spinach leaves i used finely chopped frozen spinach leaves, as i was having a packet of frozen finely chopped spinach... Also i used green chilly pieces instead of chilly powder n skipped the coriander powder else i followed everything as Mahima prepared her pakodas...Thanks Mahima again for sharing this crispy snacks..u may see her Palak Onion Pakodas here..This is my entry for MBP-Snacks & Savouries guest hosted by Ashwini's Spicy Cuisine, event by Coffee..


1cup Besan flour
1/4cup Rice four
2nos Green chillies (chopped)
1/4cup Onion (chopped)
1cup Frozen Spinach (thawed)
1pinch Asafoetida powder
2tbsp Hot Oil
1tsp Kasuri Methi
5nos Curry leaves
Salt
Oil for deep frying

Heat the oil for deepfrying, take a large bowl add the besan flour, rice flour, onion pieces, green chilly pieces,
thawed spinach, asafoetida powder, kasuri methi, curry leaves,salt.. add the hot oil n turn everything as thick paste, i didnt used water coz of thawed spinach leaves..

Take a handful of the thick paste n drop gently in the oil n fry until they turns golden brown..fry them in small batches..drain the excess of oil with a paper towel..

Enjoy ur pakodas with hot coffee!!
