Farali Patra is a delicious and tasty variation to popular snack Patra. Mildly spiced, sweet and tangy, scrumptious Farali Patra are so easy to prepare. Farali Patra can be deep fried too, but I am not very fond of fried patra, so I always steam and its tempered with cumin, sesame seeds and fresh curry leaves.

Generally Patra ( Savoury and Steamed Colocasia leaves ) are made using Gram flour, various spices and Tamarind paste, these farali patra I have made with Farali flour ( Flour you can eat during the Fast ) Peanuts, fresh coconut, yogurt and just few spices but in both recipes Colocasia leaves are the primary ingredients.

Note :- If farali flour is not available use Moriyo and Rajgiro flour. Moriyo flour known as samvat rice flour, samo flour or sama flour.

You will need :-

  • 4-6 fresh washed cleaned and pat dried Colocasia leaves ( Pattarvel na Paan – Arbi ke patte )

  • 1 cup farali flour

  • 2 tbsp. rajgiro flour ( amaranth flour )

  • 3-4 tbsp, roasted peanuts

  • 3 tbsp. fresh grated coconut

  • 3 dry red chillies

  • 1 tbsp. ginger and green chilli paste

  • 3 tbsp. sugar

  • 1 tbsp. cumin seeds

  • 3/4 cup plain yogurt

  • 1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper

  • Rock salt ( sendha namak )

  • 2 tbsp. oil

  • 2 tbsp. oil

  • 1/2 tsp. cumin seeds

  • 1 tbsp. til sesame seeds

  • 4-6 fresh curry leaves

  • 2 tbsp. fresh coriander leaves
