Kadhi Pakori Recipe


The first time I've had this in my life is at my dear friend's place here in Denver and I absolutely love it ever since. I was craving for the taste for a long time and finally decided to stop thinking about it too hard and just make it.

The taste resembles more kolambu but not quite.
