About Pakodas
Pakodas are a popular snack originating from Indian cuisine, typically enjoyed during monsoons or festive occasions. These crispy fritters are made by coating vegetables—such as onions, potatoes, spinach, or cauliflower—in a spiced gram flour (besan) batter, then deep-frying until golden brown. The batter often includes chili, turmeric, cumin, and other aromatic spices, giving pakodas their signature flavor. While pakodas are rich in flavor and tradition, their deep-fried nature makes them high in calories, fat, and oils, which can be less ideal for those looking to maintain a healthy diet. However, they do provide a moderate amount of protein from the gram flour and essential nutrients from the vegetables used. For a healthier twist, pakodas can be air-fried or pan-fried instead of deep-fried. Relished with chutneys or tea, pakodas are a beloved indulgence that blends cultural heritage with culinary delight.
