Ingredients
- ¾ cup gram flour 100g; aka chickpea flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon Turmeric ground
- ½ teaspoon garam masala
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper ground
- ¼ cup water 50ml
- 2 cups cauliflower roughly chopped, 250g
- 1 cup spinach 50g, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425F / 220C. Lightly grease a baking sheet or muffin tin with cooking oil.
- In a large bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, turmeric, garam masala salt and pepper. Slowly whisk in the water, adding only enough to make a thick paste. You may need more than the amount in the ingredients list.
- Add the chopped cauliflower and spinach to the batter and mix thoroughly.
- Drop tablespoonfuls of the mixture onto a baking sheet, or spoon into muffin cups. Cook for 10 minutes then flip and cook for 7-10 minutes on the other side or until golden. Watch frequently so they don’t burn.
Notes
- They are as lovely dipped in a cooling cucumber and mint raita or sweet mango chutney, as they are eaten on their own or alongside a curry.
- Try them with my popular Red Lentil Dahl alongside Easy Naan Bread.
- Enjoy with Tofu Curry or Chickpea Curry.
- Pakoras are fantastically adaptable, so you could add in other vegetables.
- Try substituting with frozen peas, aubergine, onions or grated carrot.
- Make them in an air fryer instead of oven baking.
- Make them spicier with added finely chopped chilli peppers, chilli powder or dried chilli flakes.
