Plantain Pakora is a flavorful snack originating from Indian cuisine, celebrated for its crisp texture and savory taste. This dish features ripe or semi-ripe plantains, sliced and coated in a spiced chickpea flour batter seasoned with turmeric, cumin, chili powder, and other aromatic spices. The coated plantain slices are then deep-fried until golden and crispy. Packed with potassium and vitamin C from the plantains, this dish offers some nutritional benefits. The chickpea flour adds protein and fiber, making it a filling option. However, as Plantain Pakoras are traditionally deep-fried, they can be high in calories and fat, which may be a consideration for those watching their intake. Often enjoyed as a tea-time snack or appetizer, these pakoras are best paired with tangy chutneys or a fresh yogurt dip to balance the flavors.
