Gobi ke Pakode or Cauliflower Pakoda is crunchy and delicious Indian fritters made with gobi florets, gram flour. It is one of the simplest, easiest snacks we can make during the season.
For the Thali theme, I made a platter theme for the first week. I featured this Pakoda Platter as part of the menu. Since I was making different pakodas, this was our meal that dinner.
I made different pakodas like Bread Bajji, Cashew Pakoda, Onion Ring Bajji, Paneer Sandwich Pakora and served it with Tomato Ketchup, Green Chutney, Coconut Chutney, and Instant Mango Pickle.
Though I have so many different versions of cauliflower pakora already on the site, this version with besan and rice flour was not there and I had to share it.
I recently made Gobi Pakoda with Xacuti Masala Powder as well. Cauliflower Tempura is yet another delicious fritter with cauliflower. Other recipes you can check our Crispy Cauliflower Pakoda, Chapata Cauliflower Pakoda, Gobi Chilli Pakoda
We enjoyed this version pakodas as during the season we do get excellent gobi and we like to enjoy it maximum during the season.

Gobhi pakoras are one of the favourite ones among all other pakodas. I have never made small ones like this , we always use a big chunky floweret , now I will make your style , they look so good .
