Description

Bread pakora is a popular and appetizing Indian snack that tantalizes taste buds with its crispy exterior and flavorful filling. This delightful dish is made by sandwiching a spiced and seasoned filling between slices of bread, coating it in a gram flour (besan) batter, and deep-frying it to perfection. To prepare bread pakoras, a mixture of mashed potatoes seasoned with spices like turmeric, chili powder, garam masala, and chopped green chilies is often used as the filling. This flavorful mixture is generously spread between two slices of bread, creating a sandwich-like structure. The prepared sandwiches are then dipped in a batter made from gram flour, seasoned with spices, including ajwain (carom seeds), red chili powder, turmeric, and salt. The coated sandwiches are carefully lowered into hot oil and fried until they turn golden brown and develop a crispy, crunchy crust. Once fried, bread pakoras are typically cut into halves or quarters, revealing the deliciously spiced potato filling inside. They are often served hot and fresh, accompanied by tangy tamarind chutney or mint chutney, which perfectly complements the savory and spicy flavors of the pakoras. This beloved snack is a popular street food across India and is commonly served during tea time, as an appetizer, or as a quick and satisfying snack. The contrast between the crispy outer layer and the flavorful, soft filling makes bread pakoras a delightful treat that is cherished for its taste and simplicity.
