Poppy Seed Fritters By Tanushree | India Food Network

There is "magic" in plain Bengali food: one being the "postor bora", in which white poppy seeds are mixed with a little rice flour, green chili and salt and shallow fried in mustard oil to make these super-crisp fritters. Poppy seeds are also known as khus khus or posto in Indian language.

Ingredients:
6 tbsp of poshto (poppy seeds)
2 green chillies
1 tbsp rice powder
Salt to taste
Oil for frying

Method:
1. Soak the poppy seeds overnight.
2. Drain out excess water and grind it with green chillies.
3. Soak the ground paste in mustard oil.
4. Add salt and rice flour.
5. On a pan shallow fry the pakodas/flat dumplings.
