Ingredients
Kuttu pakora are also known as falahari pakora or Vrat ka pakora. You will need these ingredients for the recipe.
kuttu ka aata/Buckwheat flour:
Potatoes: I have used boiled and roughly mashed potatoes you can use raw potatoes as well but chop them finely in case you are using them.
Roasted peanuts: These add a nice crunch in pakora and make them filling.
Green chilies: Some people do not add red chilli when they make food for fasting. So green chillies for heat works great in this Fasting/ vrat pakora recipe.
Salt: In fast use of sendha namak is allowed. So instead of regular salt use sendha namak or rock salt.
Common Indian spices: Cumin powder, anardana/roasted pomegranate powder and coriander leaves.
Feel free to add or skip the spices that are permitted during fasting if you are making this for falahari dish.

Recipe Notes and Tips
- When you are making the batter for the pakoda, make sure that the batter is of thick consistency. If batter is thin batter then the pakoras will break or split while deep-frying.
- Instead of deep-frying the pakoras in oil, you can even fry them in ghee or that aromatic nutty flavor.
- I have cooked this Navratri recipe using sendha namak instead of regular salt. you can use regular salt if you are not making for navratri.
- You can also make the same recipe of vrat ke Pakode using singhara flour or amaranth flour. Both of these options are gluten-free as well.

How to Serve Fritter/Pakora
Like my other recipes, I too have a special way of serving these pakoras so makes them incredibly delicious. For serving kuttu pakoras, squeeze fresh lime juice and alongside serve green chilies and coriander leaves. These give the pakoras just the right amount of tanginess and spice.
I had these pakoras with tea and green chutney chutney. You can even enjoy Kuttu Ke Pakode with coconut chutney, falahari green chutney.
