Crispy, spicy and shallow - fried to golden perfection- these onion Pakoras are inspired by traditional Punjabi kitchens. A true old-fashioned delight that pairs perfectly with a hot cup or tea ( chai).

Steps

30 mins

1

In a bowl, add sliced onions and sprinkle a little salt. Let them sit for 5 mins so they release moisture. Add gram flour, rice flour, green chili paste, ginger garlic paste, chopped coriander leaves and all the dry spices.
2

Mix everything well, add just a splash of water to bind it into a thick, sticky batter (not too runny). Heat oil in a pan over medium flame. Drop small portion of the batter using your spoon. Fry the Pakoras (fritters) in batches until crispy and golden brown on all sides.
3

Remove onto paper towels to drain excess oil. Garnish & serve: garnish with fresh coriander leaves and serve hot with sweet tamarind dip - a perfect monsoon moment from Punjabi tradition 🌧️💚.
