Vegetable pakora

Ingredients

• 200 g Chickpea flour
• 2 pcs Onion
• 8 pcs Potatoes, without skin, grated
• 1 tsp Salt
• 2 tsp Garam masala
• 1 tsp Turmeric, ground
• 2 pcs Red chilli pepper, sliced
• 1 tbsp Cumin seeds
• 1/2 tsp Chili powder
• 200 ml Water
• 300 ml Olive oil

Method

1. Heat up the oil in a wok over medium heat.
2. Slice the onion lengthwise very thinly and place in a bowl.
3. Peel and grate the potatoes into the same bowl.
4. Sprinkle all the dry spices and freshly chopped coriander and chillies into the bowl and then sieve in the flour.
5. Mix together.
6. Add a small amount of water a little at a time to create a thick batter that coats all the vegetables. Do not leave the batter and vegetable mixture for too long before cooking.
7. Test that your oil is hot enough by dropping a little batter into the oil. If it browns and rises immediately, then it is ready. Very carefully drop in spoonfuls of the mixture into the oil and fry until golden brown.
8. Using a slotted spoon, move the pakora around.
9. Once golden brown and crisp, remove from the oil and set on some kitchen paper.
