Ribbon Pakoda With Garlic | Ribbon murukku | Ola pakoda

This ribbon pakoda or ribbon murukku is a very traditional delicious and crunchy South Indian snack variety made during Diwali festival. It is basically made with Bengal gram flour(besan) and rice flour mixed with garlic and red chilli paste and deep fried. This is my family's style of making ribbon pakoda with garlic paste, incase you don't like garlic flavour you can make it normally with just chilli powder. You can also add cumin seeds, sesame seeds if you like.
