Sweet Corn And Vegetable Pakoras

These are the fritters made with sweet corns and mixed vegetables.



Ingredients
  • Sweet Corn - 1 can ( small )
  • Potato - 1
  • Carrot - 1
  • Onion  - 1
  • Chopped Cilantro - 2-3 springs
  • Green Chillies - 2 or to taste 
  • Red chili Powder - to taste
  • Salt - to taste
  • Chickpea Flour - 1 cup or as needed
  • Oil - for deep frying

Directions
  • Roughly grind the sweet corn . Do not make a smooth paste. Transfer it to a mixing bowl.
  • Grate peeled potato, carrot and add to the mixing bowl.
  • Also add finely chopped onions, chopped cilantro, green chillies, red chili powder, salt . Mix well.
  • Add besan ( chickpea flour ) and mix. Add very little water as the vegetables will ooze out some water as well. Mix and make into a thick batter. 
  • Heat oil for deep frying. 
  • Dump spoonfuls of the pakora mixture into the oil and fry on medium till golden brown from both the sides.You can fry 8-10 pakoras at a time. 
  • Remove on paper towel. 
  • Repeat for the remaining pakora mixture.
  • Serve hot with ketchup or green chutney.

Note :  If you think the pakora mixture turns watery half way through as the vegetables ooze more water, you can add either more besan or even bread crumbs.
