A thoughtful way to make use of leftover rice, and a brilliant idea to transform simple kadhi into a classic special dish!

Mixing in some spice powders, shaping into balls and deep-frying converts leftover rice into scrumptious pakodas, which are a wonderful value-add to traditional curd-based kadhi. The mellow, spice-laced flavour of the pakode and its exciting texture contrast beautifully with the tangy flavour and rich texture of the kadhi making them a winning team.

Serve the Rice Pakoda Kadhi hot, with an aromatic garnish of coriander. This delectable dish makes a good accompaniment to Vegetable Pulao or Vagharela Bhaat ( Gujarati Recipe) .

A delicious recipe. But it was difficult for me to fry the pakodas so I added some amount of besan to the mixture and then fried the pakodas. Then it turned out to be nice.
