The king of all deep-fried appetizers, can be eaten at any time of year, the mouthwatering morsels have a special place in the Iftar menu during Ramazan. Here are the 5 Delectable Pakoras to Eat during Ramadan.
Pakoras are one of the most adaptable appetizers on the table, served with fruits, vegetable rolls, and samosas. When it comes to frying snacks, the possibilities are endless, from cabbage to bhindi to onion pakoras. Pakoras come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and flavours, and there will never be two identical pakoras in the same location. While Aalu (potato) pakoras are our personal favourites, they are also the most popular. And we’d like for this listicle to serve a greater cause than merely satisfying your desire for a bite or two.
So, in honour of the Holy Month, the Pakistani Food Box has compiled five pakora recipes from Pakistani Cuisine. Serve these delicacies hot with green or garlic chutney!
