Ribbon Pakoda, a crispy and savory South Indian snack, is a popular treat often enjoyed during festivals or as an everyday tea-time accompaniment. Made from a combination of rice flour and gram flour (chickpea flour), the dough is seasoned with salt, red chili powder, asafoetida, and sometimes sesame seeds or cumin for added flavor. It is shaped into thin, ribbon-like strips using a special mold and deep-fried until golden brown. While Ribbon Pakoda is rich in flavor and satisfying as a crunchy snack, it is deep-fried, making it high in calories and fat. However, gram flour used in its preparation provides protein and essential minerals. To enjoy it in moderation, balance it with a healthy diet and consider baked variations for a lighter option. Ribbon Pakoda is a delightful fusion of taste and texture, celebrating the richness of traditional Indian cuisine.
