It's one of the cold evenings again. It feels like having something hot and crispy snacks. So my mom and I thought to prepare Onion Pakoras. A simple snack that can give a satisfying feeling for a winter evening.
2 green chili finely chopped
Few curries leave chopped
Follow these instructions
In a large mixing bowl take 3 thinly sliced onions.
Add 1 tbsp ginger powder, a few curry leaves, ¼ tsp turmeric, ½ tsp chili powder, and a pinch of thing.
Mix them well with Onions.
Additionally, add 1 cup besan, 2 tbsp cornflour, and ½ tsp salt.
Combine well making sure to squeeze onions well.
Without adding any water squeeze out the onions till the moisture is released.
Combine till dough is formed. if onions do not release water, then sprinkle a few drops of water.
Take a ball-sized pakora dough and drop it in hot oil.
Do not overcrowd the oil as it won't get crispy.
Fry on medium flame till the pakora turns crispy and golden brown.
Finally, drain over kitchen paper and serve onion pakora with tomato sauce and chai.
Enhanced Informational tips:
You can also use Rice four for more crispy onion pakoras.
Add only a few droplets to the dough. Adding more water can make dough lose and can absorb more oil than usual.
It was the best choice on a cold evening. What about you? Try and let me know?
