Note:

  • I have used home made sambhar powder,in place of red chilli powder.
  • If you use more of corn flour,then it will turn out hard.
  • Adding more water also will make it hard.
  • Eat within 20-30 mins after frying,otherwise it will become saggy.
  • Keeping covered in hot water cooks the floret,it’s very important,otherwise the flour wont stick to the florets and it will end up in a dirty oil.(all the flour u use for coating will be in oil)
