How to Make Arbi Ke Patte Ke Pakode<\/h2>\n

Arbi Ke Patte Ke Pakode<\/strong> are a flavorful Indian snack made with colocasia leaves and lentils. They are crispy on the outside while remaining soft and delicious on the inside.<\/p>\n

This recipe starts with urad dal and chana dal. First, soak both lentils overnight. The next day, wash them thoroughly and grind them into a fine paste.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, prepare the colocasia leaves. Remove the stems and wash each leaf carefully on both sides to remove any dirt.<\/p>\n

Next, prepare a flavorful spice paste. Blend onions, cumin seeds, black pepper, garlic, and green chilies until smooth.<\/p>\n

Prepare the Spiced Lentil Paste<\/h3>\n

Grind the soaked lentils in small batches until smooth. Then, transfer the ground lentils to a bowl and combine them with the prepared spice paste.<\/p>\n

Add turmeric powder and red chili powder. Next, add coriander powder, amchur powder, and salt according to your taste.<\/p>\n

Mix everything thoroughly. The lentil mixture should be thick enough to spread easily over the colocasia leaves without becoming runny.<\/p>\n

Layer and Roll the Leaves<\/h3>\n

Place one clean colocasia leaf on a flat surface. Spread the prepared lentil paste gently and evenly over the leaf.<\/p>\n

Next, place another leaf on top and spread more paste over it. Continue layering the leaves in the same way.<\/p>\n

Be gentle while spreading the mixture so the leaves do not tear.<\/p>\n

Once the layers are ready, fold the edges inward. Then, carefully roll the layered leaves into a tight roll.<\/p>\n

Cut the prepared roll into slices about one inch thick.<\/p>\n

Steam the Leaf Rolls<\/h3>\n

Heat about two glasses of water in a large pot. Place a perforated plate or steaming tray above the water.<\/p>\n

Lightly grease the tray with oil. Next, arrange the sliced rolls on the tray, leaving some space between each piece so the steam can circulate properly.<\/p>\n

Cover the pot and steam the pieces for about 10 minutes. Then, check one piece with a toothpick to make sure it is properly cooked.<\/p>\n

Alternatively, you can steam the entire roll first. Once cooked, allow it to cool slightly before cutting it into slices.<\/p>\n

Fry Until Golden and Crispy<\/h3>\n

Heat oil in a kadai. Once the oil is hot, carefully add the steamed slices. Avoid adding too many pieces at once.<\/p>\n

Fry them over low to medium heat. Turn the pieces gently while frying so they cook evenly on both sides.<\/p>\n

Continue frying until the outside becomes golden and crispy. Finally, remove the pakode from the oil and drain the excess oil.<\/p>\n

Serve these delicious pakode hot with green chutney or your favorite dipping sauce. For a sweet and tangy combination, try our Aam Ki Khatai Chutney Recipe<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n
