Our Pakora Vegetal bring together a selection of seasonal vegetables and fresh herbs, coated in a light chickpea flour batter, then fried until crispy outside and tender inside. Simple and generous, these fritters are a great classic of Indian street food, perfect for an aperitif or a starter to share.
A dish with a story
Pakoras have existed across India for centuries, traditionally prepared during the monsoon to accompany hot tea.
Every region of India has its own pakora variation, depending on locally available vegetables, from cauliflower to aubergine to spinach.
Today the mixed vegetable pakora remains one of the most versatile, most-loved starters on Indian restaurant menus worldwide.
It’s impossible to date precisely when the first pakora appeared: it’s a popular recipe passed down orally from generation to generation, with no origin document.
