My Awesome Pakoras!

Who doesn’t love some Pakoras with a cup of Tea (actually Chai) right?

Here are my favourite Pakoras using my Awesome Pakora mix (check out yesterdays post for the recipe). Note that I have added a few tweaks that I think enhance the recipe.

This post is more of a ‘tutorial’ or suggestion piece (just in case you are looking for exact ingredients).

I love my Pakoras with my quick and easy Masala Chai.

For some extra flavour you can sprinkle Chaat Masala over the cooked Pakoras.

Don’t forget the Chutneys and dipping sauces.

To make the mixed Pakoras here’s what you will need:

Cauliflower Pakoras
I used 250 grams of frozen cauliflower boiled until cooked but not OVER cooked.

I then used my Pakora Mix and add 1 TSP of ground ginger, and 1 tsp of dried fenugreek leaves to the mix.

Make the Pakora dipping mix and dip in the cauliflower and deep fry until golden brown.

Aubergine Pakoras

You’ll need one firm Aubergine sliced thinly.

Make up the Pakora dipping mix, dip and deep fry until golden brown.

Egg Pakoras

Now don’t write off the idea of the humble egg when it comes to Pakoras.

Hard boil a couple of eggs, cool and peel. Cut in half and dip into the Pakora dipping mix. Deep fry gently and drain well.

Pre-boiled Potato Pakoras

One of my childhood favourites is the humble yet gracious Alu Pakora.

To make these babies boil 2 whole medium potatoes with their skin on. Once boiled and cooled completely peel off the skin and cut the potatoes into rounds (about the thickness of a pound).

Make the Pakora dipping mix and add 1 TSP coriander leaves finely chopped, dip in the potatoes and deep fry until golden brown.

Sprinkle with some chaat masala. Enjoy.
