Ribbon pakoda, flat crisps that never end. Craggy, crisp and impossible to eat just one of. Plate with fried green chilies and a dusting of chaat masala.

Ingredients

Ginger Garlic Paste1 tsp
Saltto taste
Green Chili2, finely chopped
Turmeric Powder1/2 tsp
Vegetable Oilfor deep frying
Asafoetidaa pinch
Gram Flour1 cup
Ajwain1/2 tsp
Red Chili Powder1 tsp
Rice Flour1 cup
Sesame Seeds1 tsp

Instructions

1
Combine the rice flour with the gram flour and the flours; add water slowly — the batter should coat a spoon, not run off it.
2
Get the oil shimmering but not smoking; steady medium-high is the fritter zone.
3
Slide the batter in with two spoons — rough, craggy shapes fry crispest.
4
Cook three to four minutes a side until the sizzle quietens, then drain on a wire rack.
5
Serve hot with chutney and fried green chilies, dusted with chaat masala if you're feeling street.

Chef's tip

A final squeeze of lemon or lime right before serving wakes up every other flavour.
