Add ¼ cup of water and make a medium coating consistency batter. Add more water if required.
Now heat the oil to smoking point in a deep pan or wok.
Drain out sliced potatoes from water and with a kitchen, towel pat them dry.
Dip the potato slices in the prepared batter to coat them well and one by one drop in hot oil.

Drain aloo pakora on a paper towel and serve them hot.
