    Hi Sri,

    Will be eagerly waiting for your feedback...
    Regarding the batter... It should not be watery, that's it !

    Dear Saikripa,

    Very happy to see your words.. If you don't want crispy, sprinkle water every 2mins on it.

    Do give your feedback.... will be expecting your words !

    Pooja,

    I used to make pakoras with besan and corn grits. As I did not have the stock that time, used corn grits.
    About your queries on Corn grits : I got it from American stores. Corn grits are good for health. Tastewise, I find corn grits are crispier than besan. Otherwise, I used to make it with besan in India. After seeing your question, checked the nutrition value of both. Do pls. check in the site:
    Nutrition Facts and Analysis for Cereals, corn grits, white, regular, quick, unenriched, cooked with water, with salt
