4. Onion Pakodas

It can’t get better than onion pakodas when it comes to evening snack ideas in India. Monsoon evenings are incomplete without freshly fried pakodas and piping hot tea. If you’re in the mood to make memories and reminisce about the past with your best friends, make sure to put onion pakodas on the menu! 

  • For this recipe, you’ll need thinly sliced and separated onions, 1.25 cups of besan or gram flour, 1.5 teaspoons of finely chopped ginger, ½ teaspoon of carom seeds, 1 sprig curry leaves, 2-3 green chillies, chopped mint leaves, salt as needed and oil for deep frying.

  • Leave this aside for 5 minutes. Sprinkle besan, ajwain and salt for taste. Add more besan and water to the mixture intermittently until the dough is moist but not soggy. Leave the oil on the flame for a few minutes until it is extremely hot. Keep in mind that the pakodas should float to the top and not sink; it should become golden but not brown. 
  • Add small pieces of pakodas to fry in batches and remove onto a tissue so that it can absorb the oil. You can use ladles to avoid any spillage of oil. 

Serve hot with tea or coffee. 

5. Guacamole
