Cooking Directions

• STEP 1.In a mixing bowl, combine chickpea flour, rice flour, turmeric, red chili powder, garam masala, salt, and water to make a smooth batter.
• STEP 2.Add cauliflower florets to the batter and mix well, ensuring each floret is coated evenly.

• STEP 4.Remove the pakoras from the oil using a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
• STEP 5.Serve the crispy cauliflower pakoras hot with your favorite chutney or sauce.

Cooking Tips

• Make sure the cauliflower florets are dry before coating them in the batter to prevent the batter from becoming too watery.
• You can adjust the spice level by adding more or less red chili powder according to your preference.
• For extra crispiness, you can double-fry the pakoras. After the first fry, let them cool for a few minutes, then fry them again until they become extra crispy.

Storage and Serving

• These pakoras are best served hot and fresh.
• If you have leftovers, you can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• To reheat, preheat the oven to 350掳F (175掳C) and place the pakoras on a baking sheet. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until heated through.
