    Thank you for yet another simple but delicious recipe.

    Much Love!5 stars

  3. Just tried the roti pakodas..The pieces coated with the spicy batter and fried tasted too good…Enjoyed it as an evening snack with tea…Thanks for this innovative recipe.4 stars

    1. thank you winnie for letting me know. i am glad that you enjoyed the roti pakora. there are many recipes you can make with leftover chapatis. sometimes, i also make wraps or rolls with roti. fillings can be varied and you can have a mexican style burrito or a chinese style wrap or even a wrap suiting indian taste buds.

  4. Thanks for taking out time from your busy schedule to answer my query promptly and in detail …i have leftover rotis very often and wanted to try something new..can try this next time…Thanks once again and a big God bless!!

  5. Tried this recipe as I had some leftover rice.turned out so crispy and yummy.makes for a good evening snack with a cup of hot tea.just curious to know how pakodas are made from leftover rotis as mentioned by you in this post.4 stars

    1. yes rice makes for tasty pakora. with roti, just cut them in 1 to 1.5 inches strips. keep the length to 3 to 4 inches of the strips. dip them in besan batter so that they are coated well with the batter. then deep fry. in the besan batter, add ajwain (carom seeds), a pinch of hing, red chilli powder, turmeric powder and garam masala powder. for some spice and variation, you can add green chillies, ginger and coriander leaves.
      thanks for the feedback and rating.

  6. Wow!!! what a simple recipe….we went to Tirupati in AP n ate these pakoras….really yummy.my daughter liked it very much….surely going to make….thanks dear

  7. Usually I make some kind of fried rice with my leftover rice but today I wanted something different so I tried this recipe. It’s perfect for spontaneous leftover cooking because all the ingredients are staples. The only thing I never heard of is carom… I replaced it with nigella as I love it in baked and fried stuff.
    The pakoras turned out sooo beautiful and delicious! It was my first time making pakoras and I’m so happy I found this recipe.

    Thank you for recipes – they make my life as a vegan so much brighter!

    1. thanks a lot laura for this beautiful comment. nigella seeds can be added in pakoras. they give a very good taste. carom seeds are also known as bishops’ weeds. you can add thyme as a substitute for carom seeds.
