Shrimp Pakora is a crispy and flavorful snack rooted in Indian cuisine, often enjoyed as an appetizer or side dish. This savory treat features fresh shrimp coated in a spiced gram flour batter seasoned with turmeric, cumin, chili powder, and coriander. After being deep-fried to golden perfection, it boasts a crunchy texture with succulent shrimp inside. Packed with protein from the shrimp and boasting antioxidants from spices like turmeric, Shrimp Pakora offers some nutritional benefits. However, its preparation involves deep-frying, which increases calorie and fat content. For a healthier twist, some versions are air-fried or baked to reduce oil usage. Typically served with mint chutney or tamarind sauce, Shrimp Pakora combines vibrant flavors with delightful textures, making it a cherished part of South Asian culinary tradition. Pair with fresh greens or a light salad for a balanced meal option.
