  • Adjust the spice levels according to your taste preferences.
  • Serve the pakodas immediately after coating them with the sweet and sour sauce to maintain their crispiness.

Storage and Serving

  • Sweet and sour banana pakodas are best served hot and fresh.
  • If you have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • Reheat the pakodas in an oven or air fryer to regain their crispiness before serving.
