5 Pakora Twists To Try This Rainy Season

Craving for pakoras this rainy season? You are at the right place. Try these delicious varieties with a hot cup of chai and make your evening extra cosy. 

Corn Pakoras

Choose these delicious corn pakoras, often mixed with finely chopped onions, green chillies, and a well-spiced gram flour batter. They offer a delightful crunch with a hint of sweetness from the corn, making them a refreshing departure from traditional varieties.

Paneer Pakoras

Another intriguing option is Paneer Pakoras. Soft cubes of paneer are coated in a spiced besan batter and deep-fried until golden and crispy. For an added layer of flavour, the paneer can even be marinated in a mix of chaat masala and lemon juice before frying. 

Raw Mango Pakoras

For those seeking a tangy flavour, Raw Mango Pakoras are a must-try. This innovative twist involves thinly slicing raw, slightly sour mangoes and dipping them in a seasoned gram flour batter before frying. Enjoy this pakora with a hot cup of tea.

Gobhi Pakoras

Consider Gobhi Pakora with a twist of tandoori or schezwan flavours. While cauliflower pakoras are common, infusing them with smoky tandoori spices or a fiery Schezwan sauce in the batter elevates them to another level.
