I made these cabbage pakoda sometime ago when I was left with some cabbage after making Veg Manchurian. You can also add some coarsely crushed soaked moong dal to this. They turn out very good. These cabbage pakora turn out to be very crunchy and remain so for about 45 mins to 1 hour.

    If I don’t have rice flour, can I use all gram flour?

      Yes you can. Rice flour is used for crispness here. If you want them crispy then rice flour or 1 to 2 tbsps cornstarch is needed.
