The water in Onions is more than enough for the dry ingredients to mix up with the onions. When the mixing is over... Lets start frying.

Now jus drop a slice of marinated Onion into the fuming oil.... Once the slice raise up... It's the perfect temperature to fry off in  batches.

Take very small amount of onions and try to drop them evenly all over the oil and do not crowd the oil. 

This is to get crispy onions pakoda 's.

Do not fry in lumps..... This will not taste gud for sure.... While frying put the flame to medium... Else it could get burnt. When remove the batch reduce flame and put the flame on high while adding the next batch to oil. Likewise keep managing the flame for better crisp Onion pakoda.


Prefect for a evening snacks... Accomplished with tea or coffee on a rainy day.
