Pakodi Chaat Recipe

I have prepared a Chaat with Pakodi.

After pani-puri ,I always love to pamper my taste bud with a plate of hot pakodi-chaat.

In each bite you can get a combination of flavors to tickle your taste bud.Sweet,spicy, savory at the same time.

And the best thing is that you can always adjust the level of each flavor according to your taste ..Isn’t so cool ! You can increase the spicy level adding more green chillies or chili paste.

Tips & Tricks 

To make Crispy Fritters, you can add 1 tsp rice flour to batter. It should be a coarse powder.
I always avoid salt in the batter. The consistency of the batter should be in between thick and liquid.
Adding curry leaves is optional. You can skip. I love the additional flavour of crispy curry leaves in this Pakodi Chaat Recipe.

If you are planning to make this for a home party , you can fry Pakodi before hand. Prepare all other ingredients like chopped Onions , Sweet Curd etc.
Combine everything and make a plate of Pakodi Chaat just before serving. I am sure it will be a crowd pleaser.

I have prepared crispy Onion Pakodi for this Chaat . You can try with Potatoes. Cut potatoes into small cubes and make crispy Aloo Fritters. That tastes equally good.
