A Crispy and tasty fritters which are famous in India as street food well known as Pakoras. As Monsoons are here and it feels like playing old songs and sitting in balcony with a cup of tea and watch raining outside ,enjoying the breeze outside and feeling the every depth of it. Then my mind associates certain foods which goes with this season and what comes in my mind is Pakoras you can call it fritters but the desi way is much better.
they are my favorite tea time snacks. They are simple,easy and quick yet delicious. You can make mixed veg or simple onion pakoras but I prefer this. This recipe is perfect for rainy season.
