Kale Pakoras

Kale is an undervalued vegetable, it is a rich source of calcium and iron. As a change I decided to make kale pakoras instead of the traditional onion pakoras. These were moreish dipped in a chilli sauce.





INGREDIENTS

1 cup Washed and roughly chopped kale leaves
1 cup chickpea flour
2 tablespoon rice flour
1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
2 green chillies finely chopped
Few sprigs of coriander leaves, chopped
White part of spring onion, diced
2teaspoon cumin seeds
1/4th teaspoon baking soda
Oil for frying
Water to combine
Salt to taste

METHOD

1) In a large mixing add all the above ingredients except oil.

2) Add enough water to the contents and mix in with hands to form a dough like consistency. The batter should be not too thick but of a dropping consistency.

3) Add enough oil for frying in a heavy based pan.

4) When the oil is hot enough, start to form small balls of the mixture, drop in hot oil and fry in batches.

5) Drain on a kitchen paper and serve warm with sriracha sauce.
