Keppa Pakoda / Ragi Flour Pakoras

Pakoras with ragi flour used to be a regular snack while we were at school. When ever we feel like munching some crispy pakoras, mom used to prepare these. These taste delicious, crispy and slightly soft in the middle   when hot. But I loved it even when they were cool. They used to become very tough when cool and I loved to chew those hard ones too. While thinking of the snack I had to prepare for the Blogging Marathon, I remembered this recipe. The same dough can also be used to prepare ragi rotis also. I prepared these pakoras for yesterdays evening snack and we enjoyed it along with a cup of hot coffee. I am also linking this to Walk Through Memory Lane event started by me and hosted by Pradnya this month.

  1. I remember something similar to this being sold in our college canteen.Am sure it tastes best with a cup of coffee…

  2. I guess pakodas can never be totally healthy, but this gives you the feeling that it is and you can just have that extra one without guilt.
