Kuttu Aloo Ki Pakodi-Gluten free buckwheat,potato and pumpkin fritters-vegan recipe for fasting
Kuttu Aloo Ki Pakodi -Buckwheat /Kuttu ka atta is a healthy and gluten free fruit seed.Though it is used from centuries but now it has become a very popular grain world wide as it is considered as a super food by experts.It is good for the patients who are gluten intolerant and for diabetic patients.It contain more protein then other grains.
It is also the most popular flour to use during fasting days.I also make kuttu ki poori, to eat during fasting. Amarnath flour,water chestnut flour,samak and Sabudana is also consumed during fasting.
Sama and aloo pattices and Sabudana khichdi are my favourite vrat recipes.They can be served with Phalahari fruit and nut chutney and sweet Aam papad chutney
Kuttu seeds are hot in nature so it is advised to have some yogurt along with kuttu to balance it.I always make either yogurt dip or some chaas or lassi to serve with kuttu poori and kuttu ki pakori especially during summer
Kuttu ka atta spoil easily so I always buy kuttu groats from the store and then grind them in the mixer to get fresh flour and then use it to make kuttu ki pakodi and keep refrigerated the remaining kuttu groats for future use.
