Keerai Pakoda | Greens Pakoda | Crispy Amaranth Pakoras | Arai Keerai Pakoda - Guest Post For Viji

Hi dear friends glad to share with you all my my guest post that I have prepared for one of my dearest friend Viji @ Vijayalakshmi who blogs at Virunthu Unna Vaanga!! This is my 10th guest post. Check it out here!!

Viji is one among my good enthusiastic friends whom I earned after I started SNC event. Needless to say, she has been a very big support, to me and my event, right from the very beginning. There are some friends who have been a pillar of support and Viji is one among them. We've been friends for long, it has been a very healthy one and am happy about that. Viji had asked me a guest post very long ago and I was able to provide her one only now. Thanks to her patience here ;) she was kind enough to wait for me and my post. Thank you Viji for the opportunity and for being such a good friend. Wishing you all success in your future endeavors!!





Coming to the recipe, Keerai pakoda (as we Tamilians call it) or pakora is one among my favorite snack, it is a such a pleasurable and tastier way of eating greens. One cannot identify the greens inside these crispy tit bits and so anyone, specially fussy eaters can be fooled into eating greens easily. I have used Arai keerai (Amaranth greens) to make these pakoras, you can use any kind of greens here. Palak (spinach or pasalai keerai) will also do well, but I haven't tried with fenugreek greens. To get perfect crispy pakoras just like the ones you get in stalls, I have shared a basic trick in the recipe.
