Recipe Instructions:
Cooking Process:
- Add the thinly sliced onions, chopped cilantro, chickpea flour, rice flour, crushed coriander, turmeric, cumin, red chili powder, and salt to a large mixing bowl. Stir the flour mixture into the onions until they are evenly coated.
- Little by little, add water and stir until a thick batter forms that thoroughly coats the onions. Make sure the batter is not overly thin.
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
- To avoid sticking, use cooking spray or oil to lightly lubricate the air fryer basket.
- Place tiny bits of the onion batter into the air fryer basket to ensure equal frying, spacing them apart.
- Fry the onion pakoras in an air fryer set to 375°F (190°C) for 10–12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until they are golden and crisp.
- Take the onion pakoras out of the air fryer and set them on a paper towel-lined plate to soak up any excess grease. Serve.
