Kanda bhaji or Onion pakoda is a popular Indian street food. These pakodas are usually served with spicy green chutney and fried green chillies. And if there is a cup of tea, it just turns into a deadly combo. In this post we will learn how to make onion pakora in super crispy way along with some tips and tricks.
Typically when we make pakoras we start with besan or gram flour batter first. But in this onion pakoda recipe I have first added dry besan to the onions. By doing this, besan adsorbs extra water released by onions and pakoras become very very crisp. Make sure to slice onions thin and open them with gentle hands after slicing. This is the easiest onion pakora recipe made with very basic ingredients. If you have surprise guests at home, you can lean on to this recipe and make onion pakodas in just 10 minutes.
Pakoras are my family favorites and you can find many delicious pakora recipes on my blog like Egg Pakora, Aloo Ke Pakora, Semiya Pakora and many more.
