crispy veg starter recipe | veg crispy restaurant style | veg crispy starter with detailed photo and video recipe. an easy and perfect starter snack recipe made with a combination of vegetables with assorted spices. it is perhaps one of the tasty and crispy snacks known for its flavour, shape and more importantly its taste. these crispy starters can be shared with any occasion or celebration feast with a hint of spicy dip or a simple tomato sauce.
i have always been a huge fan of deep-fried snacks recipe. perhaps, i developed the taste from my college days. those crispy patti samosa’s, pakora or even the vada pav was my all-time favourite. to be honest these deep-fried snacks are just good to taste. they do not add any nutrients to your meal but are certainly filling. but only after starting this blog, i started to explore some healthy snacks recipes. well technically this snack is deep-fried yet i would term it as a healthy one. just because of the use of multiple vegetables in it and more importantly, it is shaped like kebab which would soak less oil. hence i would certainly recommend you to try this once and serve it to friends and family.
furthermore, i would like to add some additional tips, suggestions and variations to the veg crispy restaurant-style. firstly, the shape is not important for this snack and it is shaped like a kebab to make it attractive. you may shape it like a disc, cylindrical cube, or any desired shape using a shaper. secondly, i have used breadcrumbs to coat the snack which would make it crisp and flaky. yet you can use other alternatives like rava, corn flakes or even dry noodles to make it crispy. lastly, i prefer these to be deep-fried as it gives an even golden colour to the snack, but you may pan-fry or shallow fry too. also do not overcrowd while deep frying and give sufficient space so that it can be easily fried.
