Basic Pakora ( fritters)

Here comes the most popular, delicious and freshly fried desi fritters into our plates this very evening of the monsoon.

In our Pakistani culture, fritters are taken as a perfect snack served with ketchup, tamarind chatni and tea in local households when the sun makes its way off some where else or when rain pours down.

In my style; I only like them with green chatni(sauce) where many likes to enjoy wholesome pakoras only.

Pakoras(fritters) are linked well with the  monsoon, surprisingly taste more scrumptious when rain dominates the ground with splash.

For a home chef, they are simply love and earn respect as it never takes more than good fifteen minutes to get them fried.
Moreover the ingredients needed are always available in the pantry; no haste for finding items.
