They are sometimes served in a yoghurt based curry ("salan"), as a main dish, "pakora kari", rather than as separate snacks.
More popular dishes include, naan, butter chicken, mutter paneer, tandoori, samosas, pakoras.
It is eaten without pakoras and its consistency is slightly thinner.
While returning, the trio stop near a dhaba to get some pakoras.
I do not touch parathas, pakoras, rice or any other fried food.
It is used to flavor samosa and pakora fillings, stews and soups, fruit salads and pastries, curries, chutneys, pickles and dals and to tenderize meats, poultry, and fish.
In this case the pakoras are generally doughier and are made of chopped potato, onion and chili mixed into the batter, instead of individual fried vegetable slices.
