I was doing some research on this famous pan and I read that its hard to use them on Electric stoves. Did you ever have issues with it? Or do you use a gas stove?

Your blog is Awesome..and I love that you are a healthy eater

Love anything with methi in it, and these look delicious.
Since we seem to get fresh methi here all the year round, and it’s the perfect season no for pakodas I’m going to try this one of these days.

I thought I left a line … but am sure I got distracted by the look of those wonderful creations. Pakoras and yet no deep fry .. wonderful! Have been meaning to get that pan for a while now .. now this recipe is incentive enough.

Supriya, these look just perfect, and they’re low-fat too! Amazing. Do you think one could makes these with dry methi leaves, or would it compromise the flavor too much? I don’t find fresh methi most of the time, where I live.

Suparna thanks a ton. Guit free way to eat pakodas and dare I say healthy too

Jayasree go for it They taste delicous in this besan batter.

Keerthana thanks. Low fat, delicious and filling. What more can I ask for ?

Priya thanks. Do give it a try with the appe pan. You know I have heard gundpaanglu before. At home in Bangalore my parents referred to it that way, after my marriage I am used to the word “Appe”. I agree it is very cute )

Preeti thanks. Do give it a try and hope you like it.

Nithya thanks girl. It tastes delicous for sure.

Sandeepa do give it a try, the appey pan is really versatile, of course not the shape as that is fixed, but the variety of snacks that can be done in that pan is enormous.

Lisa thanks. I would say you need to get one girl. You can make hundreds of varieties from the pans. Like you, I love fenugreek especially the fresh ones. These treats are cripsy on the outside and soft on the inside. They taste delicious.

Nags that is the spirit. Once you try it you will not regret it.

Piti, thanks. They are indeed guilt free and filling. EAt 2 and you will feel full.

Soma, thanks. Great minds think alike. I love love fresh methi, but had never used them in pakodas. These pans use very little oil in fact.
