Owa chya pananchi bhajia |ajwain pakoda



I am a pakoda /bajji /bhajji fan. I had recently planted an owa plant which grew beautifully in my kitchen garden hence decided to prepare owa/ajwain patte ka pakoda with ajwain /owa leaves.




Owa is known as ajwain in hindi & carom seeds in english.

This is how the owa plant looks


Earlier i have posted spinach onion fritters.Serve and eat this pakoda when its piping hot .also ensure that the battershould be thick enough to coat the leaves if it becomes watery it will not stick to the leaves.








Ingredients:
10 – 15 leaves of owa /ajwain
1 Cup Gram Flour
2 tbsp Rice Flour
1tsp Chili Powder
½ tsp haldi /turmeric
A pinch of Cooking Soda (optional)
salt as per taste
Oil for Deep Frying
Salt to taste


Method:


1.Wash and wipe the whole owa leaves.



2.Mix Gram Flour, Rice Flour, Chili Powder,haldi  and Salt with water to a thin batter.



3. Dip the leaves in the batter and deep fry in oil till it turns golden brown from both sides and crisp.






4.Serve hot with Ketchup or Pudina Chutney /garlic chutney and  hot tea.

This pakoda can  also be prepared with mayuli chi pana / palak chi pana/ mathachi pana
