- Onion Pakoda are onion fritters made with onion, gram flour (besan) and spices and are a very popular Indian snack. They are traditionally deep fried but this air fryer version of onion pakoda turns out just as good! These are crunchy, so flavorful and make a delightful snack with a cup of chai!
-1 large red onion sliced, around 250 grams
- 3/4 teaspoon salt or to taste
- 1/2 cup besan, 60 grams
- 1 tablespoon rice flour, 12 grams
- 3 tablespoons chopped cilantro
- 1 to 2 green chili, chopped
- 1/4 teaspoon ajwain carom seeds
- 1/4 teaspoon turmeric
- 1/4 teaspoon red chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon coriander powder
- pinch garam masala
- 1 teaspoon oil (5 ml), I used avocado oil
- water around 4 tablespoons, as needed
Method
Take 1 large red onion (around 250 grams) and slice into thin slices. They don't need to be super thin but they shouldn't be thick. Transfer the slices into a large bowl and separate them while doing so.
Add 3/4 teaspoon of salt and using your hand massage the onion slices. Don't smash them whole doing so, just massage gently for 2 minutes. This helps in releasing moisture from the onions.
Cover the bowl with a plate and let it sit for 10 minutes for the onions to release moisture. While the onions are resting, heat a pan on medium heat. Then add 1/2 cup besan to it and dry roast the besan for around 4 minutes until it's fragrant. You want to get rid of that raw smell and taste of besan. Remove pan from heat and transfer besan to another plate. This step is optional and you can use besan straightaway but I recommend roasting the besan for better flavor.
After 10 minutes, remove the plate. The onions would have released moisture by now. To the bowl now add the roasted besan along with- 1 tablespoon rice flour, 3 tablespoons chopped cilantro,1 to 2 chopped green chili, 1/4 teaspoon ajwain, 1/4 teaspoon turmeric, 1/4 teaspoon red chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon coriander powder and pinch garam masala.
Also, add 1 teaspoon oil. I have used avocado oil here, you can use any oil of choice. This helps in keeping pakoda soft from the inside.
Start adding water little by little so that all the onion slices get well coated with the spices and seasonings.
You don't want a thin batter, it should be thick. You can need anywhere around 3 to 5 tablespoons water (start with 3 and then add more as needed).
Pre-heat your air fryer according to manufacturer's instructions. Then spray with a non-stick spray so that the pakodas don't stick to the plate.
Hold some of the batter in your hands and then drop on the air fryer plate.
You can make bigger or smaller pakodas. You would get around 7 to 8 big pakodas from this batter, more if you make these smaller. You may spray them with oil spray at this point (optional). Air fry at 340 F degrees for 10 minutes.
Then open the air fryer, spray the pakodas with oil spray again. You must spray with oil at this point. Now, air fry at 400 F degrees for 4 to 5 minutes until golden brown and crisp. Serve them hot with chutney!

What oil spray do you use?
Hi, Mam I watched all your video!! Could you tell me which air fryer do you have? Because I want to buy. Thank you amazing recipe!!
Loved the recipe and your explanation for the steps. Smart idea to rub salt with the chopped onions and letting them rest! Thank you!
❤❤
Thank you for a great recipe. I had try pakodas as the first thing to air fry in my brand new Ninja airfryer. Other than spraying oil on the pakodas (because I didn't have spraying oil), I followed your recipe. They came out really tasty!
Just bought a ninja air fryer too...did yours have a plastic smell at the beginning or not?
@@erchiguire2733 It's the teflon. It happens sometimes. So the first few times don't eat the food. Just air fry some potatoes in it and toss it out. Then clean the air fryer basket. This smell will fade in time.
Do you directly place on the Air fryer gril or use something so they don't drip down?
More ait fryer recipes pls just bought one
But how’s the taste? Does it taste like the deep/fried ones?
Thanks for SHARING.I Love pakoda.from Canada Subscriber.

Which air fryer is it.
I don’t like onions in my pakhoras, can I use potatoes and cook for same time?
Which company is the air fryer from?
When I made pakora in air fryer...All of them stick to bottom... kindly help me to sort out this
Hi....Thanks for posting...Is it mandatory to spray the oil on base? What it is called?
I am 44 yrs old ...Recently, I bought Air fryer and started learning recepies.
Just now cooked Mushroom masala😀😀😀😀
Mam jab apne already besan mix me oil Dala hai aur fir bar-bar oil spray kiya hai to oil free kaise
Hi, would I be able to add spinach to the mix? Thanks
Yes
Thanks for this video, i tried once which came out crispy on the outside but undercooked from inside and having raw masala taste. Can you share any tips to overcome this?
Should i start with low temperature to cook inside and then increase to get crispy brown texture on the outside?
I faced the same problem today.
this could also be a function of the quantity of pakodas. 340F for 10 min can be stretched to 12 to make it cooked from inside and then raise the temp for 4 min.
😊
why obsess with crispy? i prefer soft ... how to make it soft?
I must try these,,,, but can you tell me where you got your oil spray please? I bought one and it comes out like a jet and clogs up all the time
I had the same problem with the Misto refillable bottle. I just got a small spray bottle, mix half oil half water, shake and can control the spray and never have any clogging.
Which company airfyer is this any details?
I tried making them in my oven toaster
Just wondering what’s the difference between rubbing the salt over the sliced onions instead massaging the onions with salt?
I think they are about the same, the most important part is making sure that the onion is thoroughly coated.
Can we use potatos instead of onion?
How much besan and rice flour????
मॅम किस ब्रॅण्ड का हैं आपका airfryer
Which oil spray have u used?
avocado!
Can’t maida be used instead of besan ?
I need to hear the crunch🤔
any thing else instead of rice flour ?
Poha powder
What is the use of using air fryer when you add and spray oil
Some recipes need a little bit of oil and the advantage of using air fryer is that you use way less oil compared to deep frying.
The powder you roast what was it?
Besan
chutney recipe please
What is best red or white onions ?
Red
Why are you using a bread knife to slice onions?
Hello 👋 when ever i cook something like pakora nuggets fries 🍟 they are cooked from outside but uncooked from inside plz tell me why it’s happening
It's because of shape of the item and cooking time. try making pakoras little flat and cook on medium setting for at least 15 mins for pakoras.Only then turn up the heat in last 4-5 mins
For hard veggies like potato consider boiling first
Instead of mixing oil mix one tea spoon ghee it smells good
Can I do the same thing with potatoes?
you can add small cubes potatoes along with the onions!
Please share air fryer
