Pakora
Ingredients
- 2 cups besan flour (chickpea flour) ⓘ
- 1 tablespoon dried mango powder (amchoor) ⓘ
- 2 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 1 1/2 teaspoons cumin seeds, whole ⓘ
- 1 teaspoon red chili powder (like cayanne) ⓘ
- 1/2 teaspoon garam masala ⓘ
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder ⓘ
- 1/8 teaspoon turmeric
- 1 medium russet potato (peeled and chopped into small peas sized squares) ⓘ
- 1 small yellow onion (cut about the same size as the potatoes) ⓘ
- 1 box of frozen chopped spinach (10 oz)
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil ⓘ
Instructions
- Mix all of the ingredients together in a large bowl. Gradually add up to 1 cup of water until the mixture reaches "dropping consistency".
- Heat enough vegetable oil (about 3 cups) for frying on medium/ medium high heat. When the oil is hot enough, drop the mixture in by small tablespoons and fry until golden brown, flipping to make sure they brown on each side.
- Once nicely browned, remove the fritters from the the oil, (putting them on a paper towel of course helps remove an excess oil), and then enjoy! They are best served hot and fresh with a chutney or sauce for dipping!
