Radish Cashew Pakoda

I have used cashew, entire radish along with its greens. The cashew that is used to make this pakoda is sandwiched between the radish slices. I have cut the radish in semi circles and placed the cashew in between two semi circles of radish.

Radish has various benefits such as:-

1) Good for weight loss.

2) Improves the cardiovascular health.

3) Fights Cancer.

4) Eases Respiration.

5) Naturally Cooling.

6) Promotes Digestion.

7) Treats Jaundice.

8) Treats Urinary Disorders.

9) Reduces Blood Pressure.

10) Boosts Immunity.

11) Improves Bone health.

12) Clears Skin Disorders.

Note -

Never ever throw away those radish greens of the radish because they are rich in vitamin C,

vitamin B6, magnesium, phosphorus, iron, calcium, vitamin A, potassium, and folic acid.

They are believed to purify the blood, cleanse the liver, and flush out stored toxins from your body.
