Hi mam
Today morning i cooked ola pakoda.. i had prepared for the ingredient to pottukadalai flour, rice flour, salt, chilli powder and white sesame seed.. i got crispy during this time.. but after long time not crispy only dryness.. so what do i do? Please tell me the problem for not crispyness..
Aarthi
you must have made the batter too stiff, so it had dried out.
Priya
I made it today and came out well, I made a large batch of batter, can I use the left over for some other recipe like pakoda? Pls give ur suggestion...
