Ginger pakoda is a perfect choice for an evening snack. I learnt this dish from my grandmother.
What you need
Maida: 2 cups
Ginger paste: 2 tsp
Green chilly paste: 2 tsp
Salt: to taste
Refined oil
As garnish
Cashew nuts: 10 gm
Curry leaves
Cooking instructions
Take maida and sieve well. Place maida, ginger paste, green chilly paste, salt, four tbsp of hot refined oil in a bowl and mix well. Sprinkle some water if necessary. Make small balls out of this ball and flatten it with the thumb. Deep fry these flattened balls and garnish it with curry leaves and fried cashew nuts. The pakodas are ready to be served.
