Mushroom Pakoda
As mushrooms are very good for health, I always make mushroom curry. When I came to know about mushroom pakoda I tried it and really it was awesome.I like mushroom curry a lot but now I like mushroom pakoda lot more than mushroom curry. Mushrooms are called as puttagodugulu in telugu.in Andhra we make ullipakodi and this puttagodugula pakodi is an extension to ullipakodi, because the process is same as ullipakodi except that for mushroom pakoda we are adding mushrooms along with all ingredients we use for ullipakodi.so you too give it a try and enjoy the taste.
