4.    Now add water little by little and mix all the ingredients well using spoon so that lump is not formed.

5.   Add finely chopped palak in the batter and mix well so that palak is evenly coated with besan batter.let it rest for 5 to 9 minutes.

6.   Heat oil in heavy bottom kadhai.  Drop small amount of batter in oil if  it comes upward immediately  then oil is sufficiently hot for deep frying .

7.   Take batter and drop some small fritters in hot oil. Deep fry.

8.  Keep stirring occasionally so that they cook evenly. When golden brown in colour take it out using slotted spoon so excess oil is drained.

9. Keep them on paper towel in a plate  so that excess oil is absorbed.

10. Reapeat this process for remaining batter.

11. pakoda is now ready to serve.Garnish it with chat masala and chopped coriander.

12. Serve it with coriander  dip (dhaniya chutney ) or dip of your own choice /cup of evening tea or coffee also compliment this delicious pakoda.

Note:

1.      Do not add much water in batter because palak realeases water when mixed with salt.

2.        Batter must not be more watery or thin otherwise pakodas will not turn crispy.

3.        Oil must be hot otherwise in low flame pakodas will absorb too much oil and become soggy.

4.        Any veggies of your choice can be used to make pakoda
