Rice Pakora is usually made using leftover rice and it is a wonderful snack item made with besan/chickpea flour and rice. The rice that we use to make this snack could be leftover rice or we can freshly cook the rice to make these rice vadas.

Do check other pakora recipes or snacks such as mirchi bajji, puffed rice upma for quick snacks...

They are easy, simple in making and also helps in making use of the rice which has been unused.

The rice pakoras which I made here are like small biscuit shaped tikkis but we can also make small dumplings of the rice vada batter and deep fry them.

rice pakora recipe or rice vada

These are deep fried snack recipes perfect for evenings and can be eaten as an evening snack along with a hot cup of tea...They are crunchy to taste and have a rough texture outside and that gives a crunchy bite as rice naturally gives a crunchy and crisp flavor...

Instead of discarding the left over making use of the chawal to make its pakodey is a really amazing idea...

The batter to the pakodas can be made in various ways and here I have used some besan and chawal along with some spices and herbs to bring out the flavors from the pakodas....

Pakoda or fritters are too popular in India and all the states of India do try to make these pakoda or bajji recipes with many vegetables and with special ingredients...

There are so many different kinds of pakoras available and this rice pakora is one among them...

I love to update other pakora recipes too as its rainy thats nearing and we all would love to make them as an evening snack. These rice vadas can be served with any kind of chutney or dip or just plain followed by tea...

Below picture is of the rice pakoda batter and I have shot the pic to show the consistency of the rice vada batter and also the ingredients that have gone into making the batter:

Rice here used is cooked and not raw rice...Just use left over rice which is in good state, add besan to it along with spices like salt, haldi, red chilli powder, turmeric powder, coriander seeds powder, ajwain/carom seeds, chopped onions, and herbs like coriander leaves, make small tikki shapes or small pressed dumplings, deep fry them in oil and they are done...
