This is the basic pakora recipe which is a great place to start - remember to season to your taste with as much or as little spice as you like.
Ingredients
100g gram flour, sieved
1 medium onion
3 medium potatoes
1 tsp of salt
2 tsp of garam masala
1 tsp of turmeric
2 chillies, finely chopped
1 tbsp ginger, grated (optional)
Handful of coriander, chopped
2 tsp of dried fenugreek leaves
1 tsp of cumin seeds
½ tsp of red chilli powder
Water
Oil for deep frying
Method
Heat up the oil in a karahi or wok to a medium heat.
Slice the onion lengthways very thinly and place in a bowl.
Peel and grate (or very finely chop) the potatoes into the same bowl. You can also use aubergines and cauliflower - chop into very small pieces.
Sprinkle all the dry spices and freshly chopped coriander, chillies and ginger into the bowl and then sieve in the gram flour - mix together using your hand.
Add a small amount of water a little at a time to create a thick batter that coats all the vegetables. Squeeze the mixture through your fingers to ensure all the spices mix through. Do not leave the batter and vegetable mixture for too long before cooking.
Test 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.
Using a slotted spoon move the pakora around, be careful not to overcrowd the karahi.
Once golden brown and crisp remove from the oil and set on some kitchen paper.

God bless Mum! She left you with a gift of blessing the world with awesome food. Thank you for keeping it real!
Thanks so much
After many failed attempts at my own pakora type foods, I was saved by this video. Absolutely amazing. I am vegan gluten free as well so this was just the best lunch today.
Thank you for leaving your comment - i'm so happy thank I have been able to help you with this dish. Do download my free app as Id love to see pictures of your cooking if you want to share them with me. Just search Hari Ghotra on the app store. Thanks for trying the recipe. Hari
@@UCYcjKaUgYoZigYyKCDZ excellent. I will .thanks.
So am I
Let's see how it will taste for iftar..just made the batter
I love all these recipes. Yours is the only recipe I consistently use for super pakora everytime ❤
This is one of my first great memories of eating ... my parents' best friends would visit us and we them, and I will never forget Auntie Krishna's mushroom Pakoras (also grated potato); the smell was heavenly. She used chickpea flour so that's what I do now. Tx so much for wonderful videos.
My Indian neighbour used to send this every Ramadan. This year I mess her and searching to do this recipe. Thanks
Tried this, turned out so well last Ramadan, doing it again😊
as a 50-? (cough splutter) builder, let me tell you, I followed this recipe-cos I love veg` pakora, my kids nearly fainted when I showed up with my Pakora (& sauce) but, they ate it! -loved it, & I`m now god`s gifts to dads! thankyou Hari. BTW, I used the hot oil to `Seal` the Pakora, then transferred them to an `Air fryer` for a few minutes to cook them & kinda `dry` them cos I don`t want to eat deep fried food! worked for me!
Thank you Hari, old friends from my past used to cook Pakoras for me, lovely to see this, next on my saved cooking list.
Thank you. This is actually the way I used to cook them, but I found myself being a little out of practice. This has refreshed my memory and inspired me to start cooking Indian food again. I was getting fed up of having greasy ones from the local takeaway. Xx great vid.
Thanks so much for watching - so happy to bring back some food memories for you. Amazing that you are going to try cooking them again! Thanks for watching Hari
That's very kind thank you. For me it's all about inspiring and helping people to cook great Indian food!
Hari Ghotra thanks for the recipe also you can put broccoli and spinach and pomegranate powder 1 tsp of cornflour you try see the difference in texture will be crispy.
Yes you certainly can. The corn flour or rice flour is a great addition. Thank so much for your comments.
Nice
are you indian american or are you indian english

Lovely presentation, lovely recipe for a rainy evening snack to go along with a cup of tea. Was just craving for some nice, simple, easy to make snack, and came across this. Immediately got to action and made it. I avoided aubergines, and added green belpepper instead, and also went on and grated a cube of cheese in. And followed your method of not makeing separate batter. turned out amazing!!
Brilliant!
Who couldn't make these with such a simple recipe and easy to follow instructions? Won't make them any other way again. Foolproof. ❤️
Delicious with homemade tamarind chutney and coriander chutney. 😋😋😋
Thank you Hari`s mom . I will give this a go , love Pakora.
Beautiful. I was looking for a good recipe and this was perfect. I followed it to the t and pakoras turned out lovely and golden. I took them to work and everyone loved them. Thanks for sharing 👍🏻
So wonderful to hear - thanks you for taking the time to comment. Really glad your work colleagues got to enjoy your cooking too. Thanks so much for watching Hari
This save my day. Thanks for your nice presentation and strait cut information. Love from Bangladesh.
My pleasure - thank you for watching! Love from London.
It's amazing how you show it. Thank you. Will do it for sure ❤🙏
😱 You have the real taste of India 🇮🇳 going, Hari. Thank you so much. It was scrumptious! And the trick of focusing on the veggies and not the batter itself so much, is really brilliant. 👍
Hello Hari. Ever since I tried pakoras in the streets of India I've been wanting to recreate the experience at home. After looking at over a dozen pakora recipes online I finally chose yours and I'm very glad I did! I followed your recipe and the pakoras were absolutely amazing. I will be making these regularly now. Many thanks for posting the video.
Hi Dan I'm so pleased I could help recreate some of your amazing memories from India. Very happy to hear you loved the recipe and the vid. There are lots more to watch so please do try some of the other dishes too. Thanks for watching and commenting too. Cheers Hari

Great recipe that was explained in a simple way. Made pakoras today but instead of frying,
I baked them. Turned out great!!
Thank you, definitely will do it since I love them 😍. Question about the pot where you fried them, witch material and bran is it please? Best 🙏🏼
This was the recipe I was looking for - works fine everytime. Thank you so much for this!

That’s for you Mum. So sweet ❤️
Too kind! thanks for watching.

Haha thanks for watching
Thank you so much for sharing this recipe! Your instructions were very clear and easy to follow.
Love your presentation and ease of you're delicious recipes.
your transition is really fascinating, you have the British accent and when you say "Pakoray" it is the perfect pronunciation in Hindi..
The "Karahi" as well
Proper traditional snack. 👍
and sooo tasty - thanks so much for watching Hari
I love this video. Thank you so much for making this.
Very mouthwatering thanks to your mum who taught you how to make these lovely pakore.
My adjustment for this recipe is to add a little baking powder. It makes them crispier.
Yep it sure does! thanks for sharing!
Hari Ghotra ه
I knw it’s the missing bit! Btw Thankyou Hari you made it so easy to follow! ❤️ ur vid #stayblessed 😘🥰😘
Instead of baking powder you just put some spoons of hot oil in the pakora batter and it always comes put fine and crispy 😊😊😊
Or corn flour
Nice Hari, I love cooking..always nice to see great passionate chiefs
My pleasure - thanks so much for watching!
That was lovelly... and made it to be looking very easy the process... I am glad I find a recipe in English after so many tryouts, will try it !
Excellent. I loved it. Thank you

Excellent. I am impressed. The best onion / potato pakoda recipe I have seen . Thank You.
Hi Gustavo Thanks for watching - that is brilliant to hear. I love this little treats so I hope you try to cook them. Thanks so much Hari
Hari. I love cooking little treats, curry's, yellow rice, which my 4 grandchildren and 3 foster grandchildren hold me hostage to. Thank you for your very inspiring recipes.
@@gustavopereira5422 Oh how wonderful!! 7 grandkids to cook for, now that is inspiration to get in the kitchen! Love it - i'm so happy that I can help. Hari
Thank you so much for trying so hard for making your delicious vegatable pakora i had try it yum yum!
Thank you, we had aubergine and red pepper and instead of potatoes we added tapioca flour. It was awesome. Best pakora ( and first) we ever made. Bless you. 🌸🙏
I used to make these for my grandson's lunch box for school. I'd put two pakoras in a paper bag and include a samosa too.
What a fantastic little treat!
All made with organic ingredients too!
hmmm lovely... just saw ur 1st video and subscribed... love ur accent, its awesome...

Once you try these they become addictive. At times you get a longing to eat nothing else. YUM.

It's so wonderful to hear that you are a new subscriber - thank you! Really wonderful to hear that you are enjoying the recipes. Thanks so much Hari
I made these again for the second time. This time I added a grated carrot. My husband LOVES them too. I have a question about serving them. If we make them for company as an appetizer, what is your recommendation for when to cook them (as guests arrive so they're hot and keep on coming as we cook more OR ahead and keep warm in the oven?). I'm worried they will get soggy if kept warm too long. Thank you for this delicious recipe.
Glad to hear you are enjoying them. They are best straight out of the fryer but they are also ok heated in the oven and will stay crispy. I have to say I really them cold too especially with a hot cup of sweet chai.
@@UCYcjKaUgYoZigYyKCDZ Well thank you so much for that Hari. I really appreciate it.
I tried this and it’s absolutely fabulous.Quick too. Thank You so much.
That's a great idea. Most people squeeze out the nutritious liquid and then get rid of it. Cant wait to try this.
I LOVE the way you say Pakora!! Cant wait to try this out
sarahchaudhry Do tell me what you think!
Making this tonight for iftari 🙏🏻😋
Maryam Ghafoory lol me too

I mostly have Italian spices so I guess I’ll try it with the tastes my family likes and see how it tastes.
Pakora with Italian spices. Are you stupid?

Your presentation and demeanour is fantastic very calm and relaxed. All the best to you.
Delicious! I only had pea flour so I used that. I put carrots, potatoes, onions and peas in mine. I could eat them all over again! Thank you for sharing with us in New Zealand xx
Would this work with normal flour or does it have to be chickpea flour?
Hi normal flour will give you a different flavour but it will work. For this chickpea flour works better.
What is this???? ungrezi pakoda yemmy jammies 😋
hehe - these are my pakora, I hope you like them.
Sure it must be 😋😃👍👌
Godwin gundimi .., koun unrgez ki oulaad pakora banati hai.., hum?

HELO MY DIER, IM YOU AUNTY LILY, you do such a good job SOCIAL SECURITY what do you know then why do you do,Only one thing if you don’t mind it making me a little bit nervous when you make this samosas I got the impression if you can tag your hair behind your neck it will be lovely because to me to you to anybody who is in the kitchen, it’s happened that one our hair will go into the preparation that we make with so much effort so please we don’t want to have accidents about hair, going into the food I’m talking about hair falling!In to,our lovely , food(I think you’re doing a great job about Indian cooking and please don’t feel bad my comments)IM A SENOR,🥰👍🧓🏻😘
Thanks
Love ur recipe. Thank u for sharing them.😊😊
Thank you so much for an AWESOME recipe
Can you tell all the spices you put in . I am french and i have a little problem to understand all ...... tumeric, chili, .... thank you.
Not sure if this is still relevant - But here you go -
Dry Red Chilli powder, Fresh grated ginger, Turmeric powder, Fresh coriander leaves, Garam masala(ask for Garam Masala in shops - Too much in the food will give completely a different flavour and may spoil taste), Cummin seeds, Dry fenugreek seeds(in shops ask for fenugreek seeds, just few), fresh green chillies
