Ribbon Pakoda

Diwali is our colourful festival of joy and giving. Everyone has a favourite aspect during this time of the year. A few love shopping for apparel, a few the fireworks, some love making the sweets and savory items, but most love binging on the goodies.

This is one simple and quick recipe for one of the popular savory items.

Ingredients
1 1/2 cups gram flour (beesan or kadala maavu)
1/2 cup rice flour
1 tsp chili powder
Salt
2 tsp ghee
Water to make dough
Oil in kadai for deep frying

Method
Mix the besan and rice flour in a bowl. Add the chili powder and salt.

Add the ghee and make a crumbly mix. Add water to make a stiff dough.

Put into the murukku maker and directly press into heated oil.

Verdict This was a part of our festivities last Diwali and I am posting it in time for this year's festivities.
