Thinly slice the onions and add them to a mixing bowl.
Add besan (gram flour) and rice flour to the bowl.
1/2 Cup Besan (Gram Flour), 2 Tablespoon Rice Flour
Then add ginger garlic paste, ajwain (carom seeds), red chilli powder, turmeric powder (haldi), coriander powder (dhania) and salt to taste.
1 Teaspoon Ginger-Garlic Paste, 1 Teaspoon Red Chilli Powder, 1/2 Teaspoon Turmeric Powder (Haldi), 1/2 Teaspoon Coriander Powder (Dhaniya Powder), 1/2 Teaspoon Ajwain (Carom Seeds)
Also add some finely chopped green chillies and coriander leaves.
Sprinkle water slowly as you mix all the ingredients together to make a thick mixture.
Heat oil in a kadai or pan over medium heat. When oil hot, drop spoonfuls of batter in the oil. Fry the pakodas till pale yellow, then flip them over.
Cook the pakoras till they are crispy and golden brown. Then drain the oil and remove the padoras. Make all the pakoras this way in batches.
Onion Pakodas are ready. Serve them hot with tomato ketchup or green chutney.
