Notes

  • Don't add the vegetables in Besan mixture for too long otherwise the pakora will be soggy right after taking out from the oil.
  • Place pakora on grill or kitchen paper to release excessive oil. 
  • Don't cover the pakora after frying. 
  • Use fresh besan to get the best result of pakoras
  • Always use the small quantity of baking soda otherwise the pakora will absorb more oil during frying.
