Cauliflower Fritter with Rice and Chickpea Flour

Hi Friends,

Do you enjoy Pakoras/fritters, in chilly winters with hot piping tea or coffee. I know people are drooling there. Nobody can say NO to these pakoras. I made these pakoras on Christmas evening specially for kids. They kept on asking for more and more. 

These pakoras are crisp from outside and soft from inside. Using both flours gave them a unique taste and crispness. You can use only one flour to make them regular pakoras but believe me make once this way you will never take u-turn. Rice flour will give them crispness. Adding rice flour will increase your time for frying as it will take bit more time to fry properly and turn brown. But efforts worth it. Try them guys you will relish them as we did.

If you want to make it for party/get-together.

1. Follow the process and fry the pakoras only 70% and cool them completely, pack in a airtight container and store them in fridge (not freezer). Take one hour before the party and fry them again. It will take hardly anytime to make and serve them.
2. To fasten up the process make small pieces of vegetable like one inch thick. It will take you few minutes to fry a batch.

Ingredients:-
Cauliflower- 1 big cut in florets
Chickpea flour/Besan-1.5 cups
Rice Flour- 1/2 cup
Cumin Seeds- 2 tsp
Red chilly pdr- 1 tsp
Salt- as per your taste
Water- to make batter
Oil- for frying
Chaat Masala- as needed
Tomato Sauce- as needed

Method:-

Take all your ingredients

and cauliflower cut in florets

Take both flours+red chilly pdr+salt in a sieve

Sieve them altogether for a uniform mix

Now take cumin seeds

Crush them

Take all sieved ingredients in a bog bowl

Add water slowly 

Make a smooth batter

add crushed cumin seeds

Mix well

Everything ready

Heat oil in a big pan or kadai

Take a floret

Dip in batter

slowly slip in hot oil
(see its not sizzling so oil in not ready to fry)

It should sizzle like this when dropped in oil
It means oil is ready to fry

DONE 

 Now throw in some florets together in batter

Drop them in oil one by one
(Fry on medium heat)

they will start floating on the top

See all turning brown and beautiful

Remove

Remove on a kitchen towel or tissue to remove excess oil

READY TO SERVE

Sprinkle some chaat masala

or enjoy with tomato sauce

Crunchy Crispy Pakorasssss

Notes:-

1. You can use only one flour for these pakoras/fritters but mix of these flours will give a unique taste and crunch.
2. You can skip cumin seeds if you don't like it.
3. Heat oil first and then keep flame on medium to fry pakoras.
4. People use to lightly boil cauliflower before making pakoras but trust me its absolutely not required.

Hope you will like it

Pepper Corn Chat/ Corn Pepper Masala

Pepper Corn Chat/

Corn Pepper Masala

Hi Friends,

From last few weeks i become addict to corn chat. The chat corners at metro station are responsible for this addiction. By the time i deboard metro and comes out through elevators the aroma grabs me and i find my self standing in front of that chat counter ordering medium corn chat. Everyday i decide to stop myself going that side but i don't know how should i get rid of my addiction. Last week end while buying veggies i saw a packet of corn and immediately  bought it.

I made it on Saturday evening as snack. My son loved it a lot and my addiction got some relief as i was craving for it badly. So while having it i felt so satisfied and my craving was suppressed immediately. Have you felt the same addiction for some of very common chat or street food that you can't resist to buying them everyday? pls let me know so that i can know that i am not the only one here.

Ingredients:-
Corn- 1 packet (almost 1.5 cup)
Butter- 1/2 tsp
Pepper powder-1/2 tsp
Chat Masala-1/2 tsp
Lemon-1

Method:-

Gather all your ingredients before proceeding

First of all we will boil the corn

boil 3 cups water+1/2 tsp salt and add corn

it will take hardly 5-7 minutes to cook them

see they become fluffy and shiny

 Drain and take them in a bowl

Add butter and mix well

Butter melted and mixed 

now squeeze lemon and mix well again

add pepper powder +chat masala

Mix well

SERVE WARM

I love this color

Notes:-

1. Adding butter will make it smooth, shiny and melt in mouth texture so don't skip it.
2. Increase Decrease spices according to your taste. I wanted to make pepper corn so used more pepper then chat masala.
3. You can add some chilly powder or flakes for spicier version.

Hope you will like it
