Ingredients:
- 4 to 5 eggs
- 1/2 cup gram flour/besan flour
- 3 tablespoons rice flour (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 to 2 teaspoons red chilli powder
- Salt as required
- Water as needed
- Oil as required, for deep frying
Directions:
- To begin making the Egg Pakora recipe, in a small pot, add water and bring it to boil. Once the water starts boiling, add a pinch of salt and eggs.
- Cook them for about 15 minutes and remove from the flame. Run the eggs under cold water immediately and remove their outer shell.
- Slice the eggs into halves and set aside.
- In a bowl, combine flour, turmeric powder, red chilly powder, and salt together.
- Add water little by little and mix them well to prepare a batter. It should be slightly thinner but not a thinner layer.
- Meanwhile, heat oil in a pan over medium flame. Once the oil is hot, add a small ball of flour to check the state of oil. If the ball rises steadily, then the oil is hot enough for frying pakoras. If it raises slowly, then the oil should be heated for some more time.
- Once the oil consistency is perfect, take a slice of egg, dip it in the flour and slowly drop them into the oil.
- Cook until they turn golden on both the sides by flipping them occasionally.
- Set them aside in a dish towel and repeat the same procedure for the remaining egg slices.
- Prepare this spicy Egg Pakoras and serve with Tomato Garlic Chutneyor any other chutney of your choice.
