   hurray....i got it i go itt....i was so so happy.Do you know what i did,without wasting time i took the leftover rice which i used to store in fridge.Tried it.It is really yummy.I got good feedback from my husband(usually he wont give good feedback)

Ingrediants:
Leftover rice                 - 1 cup
Besan or kadai mavu    -  1/2 cup
Chilli powder               -  1 tbsp
Salt                             -   1 tbsp
Onion                          -  1
Coriander powder       -  1 tbsp
Turmeric   powder      -   1/2 tbsp
Coriander leaves         -   Few



Steps:
1.Cut the onion into thin long slices.
2.In a bowl add rice,besan,chilli powder,coriander powder,turmeric powder,salt and coriander leaves with very little water.The dough consistency to be little soft.
3.In a kadai add enough oil and sprinkle the dough slowly.My advice and  in my experience,put the dough by slightly flattening it so that the pakoda get cooked soon and it will be crispier.Else,what i experienced is,when i put like normal pakoda,inner part of pakoda is not cooked propely and the taste differs.But if the pakoda is flat,it is much more crispier......
wait till the oil bubbles stops and Place this pakoda in a tray and have with tangy tomato sauce or spicy mint coconut chutney.

(we had this pakoda continuesly for 2 days,it was so yummy)
