Instructions
- Start by peeling and cutting the potato into a thin round shape with the help of a knife or a potato slicer.
- Soak the sliced potatoes in cold water. This reduces excess starch and makes crispy pakoras.

- Add salt to taste. Combine the spices and add a pinch of soda. Mix everything well.
- Begin adding the water slowly to make a thick batter. Add the water gradually otherwise, the batter may become runny.
- Mix the batter thoroughly making sure no lumps are left inthe batter.
- Heat oil in a deep pan or fryer over medium-low heat. Dip the potatoes in the batter and carefully place them into the hot oil one-by-one.
- Fry the potato pakoras until they turn golden brown,ensuring they are cooked.
- Use a slotted spoon to remove the crispy aloo pakoras from the oil and let them drain on paper towels. Repeat the frying process for the remaining potatoes.
- Serve your delicious aloo pakoras with your favorite chutney or sauce. Enjoy!

Notes
- Soak the potatoes in cold water for an hour as they will become more crispy
- Only add a pinch of soda or the pakoras will absorb too much oil.
- Add the water gradually to make a thick batter.
- Mix the batter thoroughly, ensuring no lumps are left in the batter.
- After adding the pakoras to the oil, let them fry untouched for at least 5 minutes, otherwise the batter will fall off the potatoes.
