INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer on a low heat.
1 Peel the potatoes, cut into quarters and slice to 5mm thickness. Wash and
trim all the other vegetables. Cut the cauliflower into small nuggets and
halve the mushrooms.
2 Peel, wash and slice the onion in half, and slice the two halves
lengthways into long, thin slices. Wash and shred the spinach leaves.
3 Place the vegetables and onion into a large mixing bowl. Grind the green
chillies and add with the gram flour and other ingredients to the mixture.
4 Add the water and mix with your hand or with a wooden spoon until you get
an even consistency.
5 Turn the heat to medium. Put a small drop of the pakora mix into the
fryer to test the oil temperature. When the mixture sizzles and rises to
the top, the oil is at the right temperature.
6 Using a large dessertspoon, scoop up portions of the mixture, placing
each one into the hot oil until the mixture slides off the spoon.
7 If you want to use your hand in the traditional Indian technique, take a
handful of mix and drop into the oil at a close distance, using your thumb
to ease off the mixture from your hand.
8 Cook 15-20 portions at a time, turning occasionally until golden and
crispy. The cooking time is about 10 minutes.
9 Place the fried pakoras onto paper towels to drain. Serve hot with cool
mint chutney.
10 For the Mint Chutney: Whisk the following ingredients together and serve
with the pakoras: 4 large dsp plain yoghurt, 1 tsp mint sauce, 1/2 tsp salt
and 5 large dsp milk.
