idli pakora recipe | idli pakoda recipe | crispy idli pakora recipe with detailed photo recipe. idli pakoras can be a favourite evening snacks to your family.
i was actually preparing the idli manchurian and i accidentally learnt that idlis can also be served as idli pakoda. for those, who does not like indo-chinese cuisine and do not wish to prepare idli manchurian, idli pakoda is ideal option. this tastes amazing if served with coconut chutney or even with simple tomato ketchup.
like me, i think it is challenging for everyone to prepare some snacks for your surprise guests visit your house. i always prepare some unique and interesting snacks to my guests so they really enjoy it. of course if it is fusion of cuisine, than it becomes a point of discussion. i still remember last time when my husbands friend arrived to our house. i served these freshly prepared idli pakoras to them and i received a lot of appreciation for it. perhaps it was the motivation for me to share this recipe today.

- you can use the same batter for gobi, or even mushroom pakoras.

- i have used idli prepared with idli rava, however; you can use any leftover idlis.
