    Hi Chennai, I made your pakora ,nana bread and chicken tikka masala for my family they couldn’t believe I made it they thought it was amazing I’m 70 your never to old to learn 😊

    My mother would add all the spices, salt to the onion, massage it well and leave it for a approx 10 mins. The onions would have leached water then she would add the besan/ gramflour. The pakoras would be crispy.

      ​@@avivagros9222 You should flatten the balls of chickpea flour, it should be like an alu tikki. Then you should not put it in too hot oil cos then the outside gets cooked and insides will remain kaccha.

      @@avivagros9222 Deep frying pakora in oil is very very very easy. You don't need any fancy equipment to deep fry. You just need a deep pan, oil and a heat source. Heat the oil, I test the temperature pretty crudely like my mom did. I place a miniscule amount of batter in the oil. If it sinks and remains at the bottom then the oil needs to heat up. If the batter rises to the top too rapidly and colours then the oil is too hot. You need to scoop the batter in your hand, flatten into a disc and then drop it gently in the oil. You need to either press the pakora down a bit after it is a bit firm or use a spoon to move the hot oil on top of it. Now turn the bhajiya once and let it remain for a few secs . Then remove the pakoras to a tissue lined plate/ bowl.

      @Akanksha Patwari thank you for your detailed reply. I do everything you say. I have a special fryer with temperature control but next I will try your mums/your method of dropping a bit of batter in because the only problem I can think of is that there's something wrong with the temperature control and the oil is hotter than it says. Bless you, you're a good person :)

    Chetna, thank you for this video! I've thrown away SO many dough-y, oily pakoras in the past. But this recipe and technique made all the difference. Love the ginger and garlic and minced coriander. They came out perfect! Now the challenge will be not to make and eat them every day. I also made your Aloo Gobi yesterday and that was perfect, too. These are going in my handwritten journal of favorite recipes. Thank you so much.

    As kids we would always put tamarind chutney, coriander chutney AND ketchup on our plates with any pakora or samosas…I still do this as an adult. 😊
    Those looks amazing!
    I find some people use way too much gram flour and then you’re eating mostly flour and not the onions…
    This is a perfect ratio 👍🏽

My mother said to me no problem use red onions, that's ok. I told her the recipe called to use white onions.🤣My mother loved it very much and my family also, I think I will make it again tomorrow,
