Steps

30 minutes

1

Make a semi thick batter with using all the ingredients mentioned for making these delicious Pakoras. The batter should be semi thick but not watery. As Spinach has a tendency of leaving water and so are the Onions. Therefore use water as required. Give it a standing time of atleast 20 minutes. It's a must for flavours to infuse and also for fluffy Pakoras.
2

Drop small balls of the batter into hot Oil and deep fry on a medium-high heat only. Keep turning the sides at regular intervals so that they cook well inside out. The Oil should be hot and fry in batches of 2 or 3 until golden and crisp. Serve with a hot cup of tea or coffee at tea-time or even for choti moti bhook. Enjoy!

Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.
