Vegetable Pakora

Description

Simple and fast, yet delicious, these Indian battered and deep fried vegetable bits are great served by themselves as a snack or as an appetizer or side dish. Might I shamelessly suggest my Butter Chicken (Murgh Makhani) as a main dish? Serving size depends on how many other items are on one's plate to fill up on!

Cooking Time

Preparation Time :10 Min

Cook Time : 5 Min

Total Time : 15 Min

Ingredients

Serves : 2-6
  • 1 chickpea flour
  • 2tablespoons oil
  • 1 ground cumin
  • 1 1⁄2 salt
  • 1⁄2 water
  • 1 -2 green chili
  • 1 cilantro
  • 1 potatoes
  • 1 cauliflower
  • 1cup spinach leaves, torn
  • 1 1⁄2 onions

Directions

  • Boil the potato or yam slices until *just* tender, being careful not to overcook.
  • Mix batter ingredients well. Beat in a blender for 4-5 minutes to incorporate air (this will make the batter fluffier). Let batter rest 1/2 hour in a warm place.
  • Add the vegetables and mix in evenly.
  • Deep fry in oil that is heated to 375° until deep brown (somewhere between 4-6 minutes per batch). Drain on paper towels and serve immediately.
  • Serve with cilantro or mint chutney or cucumber raita.
