Chicken pakora is a delicious, crunchy snack to munch..It is much more different from a chicken 65. It has gram flour in it, which gives it a much more flavour. Just fry them, serve them hot with a squeeze of lemon juice, it is just awesome.. Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you..

yummy
I have tried this recipe. The batter is great and the pakoras tasted subtle. However, I will probably double the spices. Maybe make it spicier. Great recipe, Aarthi Madam. Learning a lot from you 🙂
Hello Aarthi madam
My son is allergic to eggs. Can I skip egg or is there any substitute?
Thank you.
you can skip egg, add little yogurt
