🇮🇳 Indian

Stuffed bread pakoda, the college-canteen monsoon hero. Craggy, crisp and impossible to eat just one of. Plate with fried green chilies and a dusting of chaat masala.

Prep 16 min Cook 24 min Serves 4 Medium

Ingredients

Ginger Garlic Paste1 tsp
Saltto taste
Green Chili2
Turmeric Powder1/2 tsp
Vegetable Oilfor deep frying
Potato3 medium, cubed
Asafoetidaa pinch
Gram Flour1 cup
Ajwain1/2 tsp
Rice Flour2 tbsp
Bread4 slices

Instructions

1
Mix the bread into a seasoned batter with the gram flour, resting it ten minutes so the flours hydrate.
2
Warm the oil till a test droplet sizzles and floats at once; too cool and everything goes greasy.
3
Drop spoonfuls of the batter into the oil without crowding; they should each have room to swim.
4
Let them take their colour slowly; deep gold means cooked centres and shattering crust.
5
Serve hot with chutney and fried green chilies, dusted with chaat masala if you're feeling street.

Chef's tip

Taste as you go — chili heat, salt and sourness should all lift each other, not fight.
