Another crunchy recipe from my kitchen. In fact I got the idea of using radish for a fritter from a fellow blogger in WordPress.
This vegetable has a pungent smell and a peppery flavour.Even though the smell doesn’t attract many,this root vegetable hosts many
health benefits.
If you check my previous posts I have posted radish paratha,sambhar,and a vegetable side dish with carrot .
This is the second time i have made this fritter.The first time I made was with the bajji mixture, fried and dropped into buttermilk
curry (mor kolambu).All loved the taste, and I forgot to click a photo so the post is delayed.(will post soon as it’s worth the try)
Today’s crunchy recipe is with different ingredients, and spiced different too..so let’s move to the recipe.
INGREDIENTS
3 medium sized radish peeled, washed,grated,and water squeezed out lightly
A handful of roasted/raw peanuts
1 onion chopped fine
2 green chillies chopped fine
2-3 cloves garlic chopped
1 cup wheat flour
2 tbsp rice flour
1/2 cup gram dal flour
1-2 tsp sambhar powder
a pinch of asafoetida
few curry leaves
salt to taste
oil for frying
METHOD
Mix all the ingredients except the oil.Do not add much water as the radish will give out moisture..You should be able to hold the
dough with your 4 fingers.(that’s the consistency you require).Add water only if needed.
Heat oil, and take a tbsp from the heated oil and pour into the flour mixture.Mix and fry till crisp and golden .
