The weather is amazingly beautiful. It is a mix of rainy days and sunny days but the weather stays pleasant. This weather only doubles my appetite and makes me crave for tea and snacks. Pakora or better known as fritters are my all time favorite tea-time snack. I can think of enjoying some spicy Bhindi PakoraĀ or onion fritters any day. So, I decided to make some crispy Palak Pyaaz ke Pakode today.
Pakora, Pakode, Bajji are just different names for fritters. They are deep fried snacks and usually served at tea time. I’m going to share the recipe for some Spinach Onion fritters today. You can also watch my youtube video to learn to make these crispy snacks.

Palak Pyaaz Ke Pakode
Ingredients
- 1 cup Spinach cleaned and finely chopped
- 1 Onion peeled and sliced
- 1/2 cup Besan/Gram Flour/chickpeas flour
- 1/4 cup Rice Flour
- 1/4 tsp Turmeric powder
- 1 tsp Red Chilli powder
- Salt to taste
- vegetable oil for deep frying
Instructions
-
Add all ingredients except oil in a mixing bowl and mix it well with your hands to make a thick batter.
-
Heat oil in a pan over medium flame.
-
Drop small portions of the batter using a spoon or your hands and fry till golden brown.
-
Remove from the pan and drain the excess oil.
-
Serve it hot with some tomato ketchup or dip of your choice.
Recipe Notes
Make sure to check if oil is ready. You can check by dropping a small ball of the dough in the hot oil and if it immediately comes on top, oil is ready.
There is no need to add water while mixing batter as spinach, onion, salt will leave enough water to make it wet.
I was interested to learn more about the different names for fritters. These look like a deliciously satisfying and wholesome snack. I like the spinach/onion combination. I would definitely need to eat more than one of these!
Thank you April š
I just love the flavors of Indian food. I have made a number of entree dishes but have not gotten around to the more snack kind of recipes. This has got to get into my queue. This looks super delicious.
Thank you Peter š
These look delicious! I think they would be great as an appetizer for the upcoming football season as a game time snack!

Pakora are the best Indian Snacks and above images made me more hungry now. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you š
Yes, it is an awesome snack that can be done real quick.
I would suggest a small piece of ginger can be grated and added to the batter.
Curry leaves and green chilies could be grated as well and Iām sure you would all love it.
Thank you for the lovely idea ????
