METHOD:
Take rice in a large bowl, add yogurt in it. Mix nicely and keep it aside for 10 minutes or till rice almost soaks yogurt.
Now mix gram flour, asafoetida, green chillies, coriander leaves, crushed coriander seeds, curry leaves, minced ginger, baking soda and salt with the rice-yogurt mixture.
Mix everything nicely to make a thick batter to form fritters. (No need to add water in it)
Heat oil in a pan. Take a spoonful batter, give a shape of flat ball, drop into the hot oil. Deep fry till both sides turn golden brown. Follow the same process for rest of the batter. Take them off the pan and serve immediately with chutney / sauce. Enjoy this crispy evening snacks!!!
