Green Moong Pakora : From My Mom’s Kitchen



Since my childhood Green Moong Pakora is one of my favorite snacks. Actually I didn’t like Dal (pulse) so much so my mom used to prepare these yummy, spicy, simple snacks of green moong so that I got the cereal nutrition along with a wholesome appetizer. 

Even today when after my delivery doctor advised me to take iron and protein in my diet my mom prepared me the snack and I really became nostalgic. Thanks to my mom for the recipe, hope I can do the same if my little princess also finds pulses not that savory.


Ingredients
  • Green Moong (gram) – 250gm
  • Fresh Coriander leaves – 1 bunch
  • Green chilies - 4/5
  • Garlic – 3 bulbs
  • Salt as required
  • Pinch of sugar
  • Mustard/white Oil for deep fry

Preparation
Let the green gram soak in water for the whole night. Next day make a thick paste of green gram, green chilies, coriander leaves and garlic in mixer grinder. Add sugar and salt to taste in the paste.
Method
Put the frying pan on the burner. Pour oil in the frying pan and heat it. Make few flattened balls with the batter and deep fry. Serve hot with your favorite sauce.

Garnish with coriander leaves and green chilly. You can add tomato sauce or coriander sauce.
