Onion pakoras (or kanda bhajiyas) are a popular Indian fritter made with thinly sliced onions tossed in a spiced gram flour batter and deep-fried till crisp. Adding rice flour makes them extra crunchy, while green chillies and chaat masala add that familiar street-style kick. Perfect during monsoons or as a tea-time snack, these are best enjoyed hot with family or friends around.

Description - Step 1

Step 1: Salt The Onions

Add sliced onions to a large bowl and mix with salt. Set aside for 10–15 minutes. This draws out moisture and helps soften the onions, which is key for a crunchy texture later.
