If we are are hosting any party we can prep the spinach with the ingredients above and place it in a airtight tupperware refrigerated until use.
Heat oil in a wok on low flame once we mix all the ingredients in the spinach the oil will be ready for frying.
Just before frying only add the gram flour, all purpose flour and salt, sprinkle little water at a time and mix well.
The batter must be tight not in dropping consistency. Take a golf ball size roundle, pinch and drop the batter in oil fry on low to medium flame.
We can fry the pakodas for two minutes on each side we have to keep flipping it until all sides are golden in color.
Drain excess oil on a kitchen towel and serve these pakodas hot with chai or beverage of choice...Enjoy 😊
