    Gowri , I have heard about these oil-free recipes but never experimented.

    Your easy-to-make recipe and accompanying snaps are too tempting.Now I do not have any apprehensions on how yummy they are going to be with you vouching for it :thumbsup

    Thanks a lot for posting.

    Gowri , one quick query.

    Is it fine to make the batter with only gram flour and no rice flour.I have some besan at home and want to try this during the weekend.

    P.S: This question is from someone who never made pakoras till date:hide:.

    Sabitha,

    You can use besan alone... rice flour is just for binding and crispness! It won't have much effect on the taste either !

    Enjoy...

    Gowri , I tried the much touted oil-free pakoras this weekend.

    Wow it came out really well contrary to what I envisaged it to be.

    I relished it.I made the batter with only besan and shall try to add rice flour next time.It wasn't bad with only gram flour.In fact I was surprised that it tasted really well with 0 ml oil :crazy

    Sabitha,

    Thanks... Good one more healthy snack in your kitchen ! As you said... it should not matter, as the flour will be cooked, so no raw smell.

    Really...very happy to hear from you.

    With love..
