Bread Pakora is a popular Indian snack made by deep-frying bread slices coated in chickpea flour batter. It is often served with chutney or ketchup and is a common street food in various parts of India.

Ingredients

The main ingredients of Bread Pakora are bread, chickpea flour (also known as gram flour or besan), and spices. Some variations may include stuffing like potato filling or paneer (cottage cheese).

Preparation

To prepare Bread Pakora, slices of bread are dipped in a thick batter made from chickpea flour mixed with water, salt, and spices such as turmeric, red chili powder, and carom seeds. The coated bread slices are then deep-fried in vegetable oil until they turn golden brown. The pakoras are drained on paper towels to remove excess oil before serving.

Serving

Bread Pakora is typically served hot and is often accompanied by chutney, such as mint chutney or tamarind chutney, or ketchup. It is a popular snack at tea time and is also commonly served at breakfast.

Variations

There are several variations of Bread Pakora. In some regions, the bread is stuffed with spiced potato filling or paneer before being dipped in the batter and fried. This is known as stuffed Bread Pakora. Another variation is the Punjabi Bread Pakora, which is typically larger and includes a layer of mashed potatoes between two slices of bread.
