Mix together all the ingredients except oil for deep frying: sliced cabbage, carrot, potato, onion, besan, rice flour, ginger-garlic paste, green chillies, red chilly powder, chopped curry leaves, 1/2 tbsp hot oil and required salt, well with your fingers.
2)Sprinkle few drops of water if necessary to form a slightly hard batter. The batter should just coat the cabbage and onion pieces(as onion and cabbage has enough water there is no need to add much water).
Heat oil in a deep frying pan, reduce heat to medium and drop the batter into oil to form small fritters.
Deep fry the cabbage pakodi to a golden brown color. Using a ladle, turn the fritters upside down, to cook evenly on all sides.
Remove cabbage pakodi onto an absorbent paper and store in air tight containers to serve as an evening time snack over a cup of hot tea.
