Pakoras are a must for iftar during Ramadan. It’s as if their crunch and warmth must accompany steaming cups of chai. Throw in hot samosas for added comfort. Nostalgic! How I miss these goodies from home!Pakoras are flavour-packed fritters that are light and airy. The base component of all pakoras is gram flour, onion, cilantro, spices. You can make pakoras with all kinds of vegetables, as long as they’re small enough to cook through and large enough to hold to the batter. Vegetables like spinach, eggplant, and potatoes are also added. Of course all these pakoras are named after the vegetable used for instance palak pakora refers to spinach pakora, baigain pakora to eggplant pakora and aloo pakora to potato pakora.Aloo laccha pakoras are made with potato, besan, rice flour, and regular spices. They are crispy from the outside while soft from the inside. “Laccha” basically refers to a lattice as the grated potatoes and sliced onions combined with the flours form a sort of lattice when scooped. Ensure the oil temperature is high when adding pakoras, then reduce to medium heat for the perfect crispy texture.With their crispy texture and flavourful spices, these pakoras are sure to become a household favourite for iftar because iftar without pakoras is no iftar at all!
