Ribbon Pakoda Recipe | Ribbon Murukku | Ola Pakoda with step-by-step photo and video recipe. Festival season is around the corner and everyone is looking for something easy simple festival desserts. However, we all overlook one kind of recipe which are important for the festival celebrations, yet does not get the same impotence. One such easy and simple snack recipe is the ribbon pakoda recipe which is particularly prepared for major festivals and served with every sweet.

I had posted this recipe long back, and I am revisiting it with an additional variety. In addition, I have also tried to capture more details this time compared to my previous video post. Firstly, the additional recipe post I have shown this time is the garlic-flavoured pakoda with black sesame. Honestly, some may have reservations about the garlic flavour for festivals or occasions. But trust me, it is much tastier and flavorsome compared to the traditional ribbon murukku. You would certainly enjoy these with a hot cup of tea as an evening munching snack. The other variation is the traditional one prepared with white sesame and no additional flavours in it. It is an ideal snack to be served with any type of sweets and serve it to your friends and family.

Furthermore, I would like to add some more additional tips, suggestions and variations to the ribbon pakoda recipe. Firstly, the traditional ribbon murukku is prepared using the soaked raw rice and later ground into a fine paste. This can be a time-consuming process and hence using fine powdered rice flour is a better option. Secondly, as an additional flavour to the garlic, you may add mint or even fresh coriander leaves paste with the rice flour dough. This may make it less crispy and dense but still, it would add a lot of flavours. Lastly, if you are new to deep frying, there is a simple trick to establish whether it is fully fried. Basically, while frying it has to stop releasing bubbles. Moreover, keep the flame at low to medium flame for the best crisp results.
