Looking for a interesting and easy tea time snack, then this moong dal bhajia | Pakora recipe is a perfect one for that. I happened to taste this in a friend's place during Navratri last year. Later i noted down the recipe from her but completely forget about that. When i was going through my last year's notebook, i happened to see this recipe of moong dal pakoda. So made this yesterday. It turned out very well. She didn't add onions to the recipe when she made it, but i added in the post. This pakora tasted great without onions too.

Notes:
- If the batter is very watery add 1 to 2 tsp of rice flour to this.
- Ensure that you drain the water completely before grinding.
- After adding potatoes the batter will loosen, so do not add water.
- You can add finely chopped green chili instead of grinding. But since to avoid coming into the mouth while eating grinding is preferred.
- Instead of chili finely pound black peppers can also be added.
- Traditional Maharastrian bhajiyas will include coarsely pound coriander seeds too | dhaniya seeds.
