Flavorful Snack Recipes Inspired by Indian Cuisine

 

These pakoras are one of the simplest Indian snack recipes to make, requiring only about 10 minutes in the kitchen. Not only that, but they’re exceptionally tasty — as fritters tend to be. You can even throw in additional shredded vegetables to give your fritters more flavor and texture. Flavored with onion, chili, and coriander, these are a great food for munching on with friends and family. Try serving with chutney or sauce for added flavor at your next party. This recipe from Veg Recipes of India yields about eight pakoras.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup chickpea flour
• ½ inch ginger, finely chopped
• 1 small to medium onion, finely chopped
• 1 green chili, chopped
• 2 tablespoons chopped coriander leaves
• 2 to 3 pinches of baking soda
• ¼ cup water
• salt as required

Directions:

Mix all ingredients in mixing bowl, stirring with a spoon or wired whisk to make a smooth and lump-free batter. Heat oil in skillet, then drop spoonfuls of the batter into skillet. Fy the pakoras in oil until golden and crisp. Once finished, dry on paper towels to remove excess oil. Serve the pakoras hot with coconut chutney, coriander chutney, or tomato sauce if desired.
