It's a Gujarati deep fried tea time snack made from besan (gram flour) and fenugreek leaves. Gota has soft and spongy texture.These mouthwatering methi gota are fluffy and spongy from inside and crunchy from outside. Usually pakora and gota are different. Pakora are little crispy and has less water added while making batter, while gota are soft, spongy and batter is thin compared to punjabi pakora.
