This was very easy to make and oh so yummy! I didn't have saffron on hand so made it without and it was still very good. I used a disher that I use to make drop cookies to drop the batter into the oil and it made perfect round pakoras. Having your hands farther away from the oil is safer, too! Thanks for a great simple recipie!

This was a great mix for pakoras - very quick & easy! Next time I hope to find the cilantro and maybe even the tamarind sauce another reviewer mentioned. Served 2 of us as a light lunch - beautiful thanks!

Wonderful recipe and so easy to make. I managed to surprise some guests with the little time I took in making it!!! We have this with tamarind sauce. Sure is a keeper. Thank you, Carol.
