The Story Behind the Dish
Chicken pakora is the meaty cousin of the vegetable pakora, especially popular in Punjab and in Punjabi communities abroad, where it's a staple of restaurant menus.
The chickpea-flour batter is naturally gluten-free and fries up crisp and golden.
⭐ Why It's Famous
Crunchy outside, juicy inside and full of spice, chicken pakora is the ultimate party snack.
💡 Fun Fact
Ajwain, a tiny seed with a thyme-like flavour, is added to fried snacks in India because it's traditionally believed to aid digestion.
