Baked Pakoras

The recipe that I shall be sharing with you today is a healthy version of Pakoras. Traditionally pakoras are fried, but we are going to oven bake them.

Prep time: 10 mins

Cooking time: 20 – 25 mins

Ingredients

1 Medium sized Onion sliced
1 Medium sized Potato chopped
1 Chilli chopped
Handful of fresh chopped Coriander
Handful of Chilli flakes
1 tsp Turmeric powder
5 – 7 heaped tablespoons of Garam Flour – (gluten free as made from chickpea and yellow split pea)
50 – 100ml Water – you may not need all of it – use a little bit at a time.
Salt to taste

Makes 10-15 pakoras

Mix all the above ingredients in a medium sized bowl, except salt.
The salt goes in just before you put them on the baking tray
The mixture needs to be firm consistency not runny or hard (like coleslaw)
Heat the oven at gas mark 6 / 180c
Spray the baking tray with fry light
Spoon out the mixture and put it on the tray
Repeat until all the mixture is used up
Spray the pakoras with fry light
Pop them into the oven for 10 mins, turn them over and leave for another 10 mins until cooked through
Serve immediately with Mint yogurt
These can be cooked beforehand and reheated.
