Pakkavada is very popular snack in Kerala State.  My dear friend Rani, also my neighbor herself is a great cook. I got Pakkavada's recipe from her a few days ago. You wd really love if there is something to munch when you have your evening tea...

WHAT YOU NEED:

Rice powder - 2 cups
Chana powder / Besan - 1 cup
Red chilly powder - 1 1/2 tsp
Asafoetida - a big chana size
Butter - 2 tbsp
Salt - to taste
Oil - to deep fry

HOW TO MAKE :

In a mixing bowl add all the above ingredients  (except oil) and form a dough adding little water.
THE DOUGH....

Then heat enough oil in deep kadahi.

Now take a small part of the dough and fill in a Pakkavada Maker.
CRISP PAKKAVADAS


When oil is hot press directly in the kadahi.

Fry and keep stirring all the time till the pakkavadas golden and crisp.

Remove and place over a tissue.

Store the Pakkavadas when they are completely cooled. 

Serve Pakkavadas as a Snack with Tea or Coffee.
