Yam & Oats Pakoda

Am an addict to oats and i tried many dishes also some bakes with this wonderful grain, today am gonna post this yummy fritters which i prepared few days back using mashed yam and rolled oats along with few spices, actually i wanted to prepare pakodas just with yam but as usual my tiny mind wanted to add some oats to make this deep fried beauties somewat healthy and i couldnt resist to try out this combo, they tastes wonderful and suits prefectly as a crispy side dish along with curd rice and we loved it also an appetizier or snack along with ketchup..

Yam and oats fritter

2cups Yam (cooked & mashed)
1cup Oats (grounded coarsely)
2tbsp Rice flour
2nos Onions( chopped)
2nos Green chillies (chopped)
1/2tsp Garam masala
1tsp Fennel seeds
3nos Garlic cloves
Salt
Oil

Grind the fennel seeds and garlic cloves as fine paste, now take the mashed yam, grounded oats, rice flour,garam masala and salt, meanwhile heat few drops of oil, add the chopped onions and chopped green chillies and sauté until the onions turns transculent..Add this sauteed onions to the yam-oats mixture, turn them as thick batter..Heat enough oil for deep frying, make small balls from the mixture and drop gently to the hot oil, fry until they turns golden brown..

Enjoy hot as side dish or for snacks..
