Everyone loves Bajji recipes; nothing can beat a hot, crispy, vegetable-based bajji. These Bajji pakoras are generally prepared during the wet season or winter season, especially to beat the cold weather. Notably, the Mirchi Bajii recipe is hugely popular because of its savoury and spicy taste. There arenโ€™t restrictions when choosing vegetables. Hence, there are several flavours and varieties of pakora recipes.ย One hugely popular recipe is aloo pakoraย orย potato pakora because of its mild, lip-smacking, savoury taste. It is often consumed as it is with tomatoย ketchupย butย tastes excellent when sandwiched between pav or bread.

Aloo Pakora Recipe

The recipe for aloo pakora is straightforward, yet there are some suggestions and recommendations. Firstly, I would heavily recommend using a slicer to slice the peeled potatoes thinly. Alternatively, you can use a sharp knife to slice it thinly with extra care. Moreover, do not forget to wash it with cold water to remove excess starch from potatoes. Secondly, I have added chaat masala to the besan batter for the extra zing or chatpata taste. But it is optional; you can replace it with garam masala + amchur powder.ย Finally,ย baking soda is optional and is added forย extra puffiness. Also, deep frying does not take much time, so it is better to fry these deep whenever required.
