*Then add a cup of rice flour along with onion, green chillis and ginger. Add jeera and salt as per your taste.

*Lastly, add chopped coriander leaves and mix well. Now heat a thick base pan and add oil (enough to deep-fry the pakoras).

*Make small balls of the mix and drop them in the oil; 5-6 at a time.

*Deep fry each side for 2 minutes and then slowly turn and fry the other side.
