STEP 2.In a bowl add the besan, rice flour, crushed ajwain/carom seeds, red chili flakes, turmeric powder baking soda, and salt. Mix well.
STEP 3.Add a small amount of water (¼ cup) to make a thick paste. Set aside for 5-10 minutes
STEP 4.Meanwhile, in a large pan, add oil and heat on medium heat.
STEP 5.Once the oil is hot, dip each potato slice into the batter, then carefully transfer to the hot oil. Repeat with the remaining potato slices. Cook for a couple of minutes, then flip the potato slices. Cook until both sides are golden.
STEP 6.Work in batches if needed, do not overcrowd the pan.
STEP 7.Once golden brown, remove aloo pakora with a slotted spoon and transfer to a plate lined with a paper towel to absorb any excess oil.
