Vegetable Dal Pakora Recipe is a delicious appetizer or a tea time snack that is made with a combination moong dal and chana dal. The dals are soaked and ground into a coarse batter, then grated carrots, crushed roasted fennel seeds, coriander leaves, green chilli, ginger along with other spices are mixed into the batter to add more flavour to the dal pakoras. 

Adding vegetables to the dal pakoras gives it an added texture and flavor. We have added only carrots but you can add other vegetables of your choice. Usually cabbage is also added to make these Dal pakoras. 

Dal Pakoras are high in protein because of of the dals and have added nutrition from the vegetables. 

You can choose to deep fry these pakoras or pan fry them using the Kuzhi Paniyaram pan. The pan frying method is a more healthier option as you get to control the amount of oil used. Either ways, Vegetable Dal Pakora is delicious and makes a great party appetizer. They also make a great after school snack for your kids. 

Serve Vegetable Dal Pakora along with Dhaniya Pudina Chutney as a tea time snack with a hot cup of Adrak Chai.
