Ribbon Pakora is a popular Indian snack originating from South Indian cuisine, known for its crispy, ribbon-like texture. Made from rice flour and gram flour, the dough is seasoned with spices such as red chili powder, cumin, and asafoetida, along with salt and occasionally sesame seeds for added flavor. This mixture is shaped into thin strips using a mold and deep-fried until golden brown. Ribbon Pakora is primarily a treat enjoyed during festivals or as a tea-time snack. While it is a great source of energy due to its carbohydrate content, its health aspects are influenced by the fact that it is deep-fried, making it high in calories and potentially less heart-healthy when consumed excessively. However, its plant-based ingredients and spices contribute antioxidant properties and digestive benefits. Moderation is key for enjoying this crunchy and flavorful snack as part of a balanced diet.
