Yam & Bread Pakodas

Seriously i dont trash anything that much easily, i always break my head to finish those leftovers sitting sadly either in my fridge or in my pantry, this time there were some already cooked yam pieces and some stale breads caught my attention, thats why i finished them as these crispy pakodas for our snacks, everyone loved this quick,easy and crispy pakodas with ketchup along with a cup of coffee or milk, also these pakodas can be served very well as side dish for any sort of rice dishes...They were quite addictive and definitely an interesting pakodas to enjoy either as snacks or as side dish..

Yam & Bread pakodas

2cups Yam (cooked &well mashed)
4nos Stale bread slices(soaked in water & squeezed well)
2tbsp Rice flour
1tbsp Cornflour
2nos Onions( chopped)
2nos Green chillies (chopped)
1/2tsp Ginger (crushed)
Few curry leaves
1tsp Fennel seeds
3nos Garlic cloves
Salt
Oil

Grind the fennel seeds and garlic cloves as fine paste, now take the mashed yam,soaked bread slices, cornflour,rice flour,crushed ginger,chopped onions,chopped green chillies, curry leaves and 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..

Priya, yam pakodas are popular in North Indian villages...I ate a lot of them during my field work..they taste very good, but they were made of yam and besan (chick pea flour). Making them with bread is a nice twist, and I think I'll try these. ALthough I ate lot of them during those days, I never tried making them at hom...your post inspires me to try them on a rainy evening...with a hot mug of chai....Heven..
