You may surprised to see the name soft pakodas, yep we make two types of pakodas one is extremely crispy pakodas and the another one is soft pakodas. Soft pakodas aka medhu pakodas will have baking soda in their pakoda batter while we add more rice flour but not baking soda in crispy pakoda's batter, apart from it you can add any veggies or greens in these both pakodas. Inspired by my mom's medhu pakodas,I tried my hands in making this medhu pakodas few days back, she usually prepare her pakodas just with onions and coriander leaves, but i prepared mine with finely chopped Amaranth leaves. Seriously kids wont mind having deep fried fritters with watever they are prepared.Obviously if my kids hate any veggies or greens, i'll try to feed them either by adding in pakoras or in vadas.
Coming to this pakoras, these green pakoras is my last post for this week's blogging marathon, pakoras are my favourite street foods, as a kid i always loved to munch these crispy beauties. Needless to say, these pakoras are my kids favourite too, since i chosed Kid's delight-street foods as this week's theme of blogging marathon am posting this crispy pakodas today.Check out the Blogging Marathon page for the other Blogging Marathoners doing BM#26.Sending to my own event Healthy Diet-Go green guest hosted by Amurta.
