My mind was full of this kadhi pakora. One of my Indian co-workers shared this dish with me for lunch, it tasted so delicious and I made up my mind to try this for dinner. Though I was aware of this dish and the recipe, I hadn&#8217;t tried it before. The best part is that this dish doesn&#8217;t call for any complicated ingredients. If you have besan or gram flour and yogurt, this dish can be made in no time.<\/p>\n<p>Basically, veggie fritters are dunked in a spiced yogurt-gram flour gravy. Yogurt imparts a slight sourness to this dish which is what makes this dish tasty and unique. While making fritters, you could add different kinds of veggies or just with onions; I made mixed veggie pakoras. This is definitely a very delicious vegetarian dish that can be served with chapati or rice.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-29774\"
