Recipe Notes
Additional Tips
- For extra crispiness, add a tablespoon of rice flour or cornflour to the chickpea flour batter—this helps the pakodas stay crunchy even after cooling.
- If you prefer a zestier flavor, mix in a handful of chopped fresh curry leaves and green chilies directly into the batter before frying.
- To make ahead, you can marinate the chicken with spices and refrigerate for up to 8 hours; just coat with the batter right before frying to prevent sogginess.
- Pair with a quick mint-yogurt dip by blending fresh mint, cilantro, green chili, yogurt, and a pinch of salt for a refreshing contrast to the spicy pakodas.
