To make bread pakora
Ingredients:
• Besan (gram flour) 2 cups
• Ajwain 1 tsp
• Salt to taste
• Water as required
• Bread slice as required
• Potato filling
• Oil for frying
Methods:
• In a mixing bowl, add the besan, ajwain and salt, mix it once and then add water slowly and gradually to make a semi thin batter, whisk well while adding water to ensure a lump free and smooth batter.
TIP: If you want to make your bread pakoras to be a little crispier, you could wish to add ½ tsp soda and whisk well, I don’t prefer adding soda, but at the end its your personal choice.

• Rest the batter for 10-15 minutes.
• Take a bread slice and apply a spoonful of potato mixture and spread evenly, close it with another bread slice just like a sandwich.
• By the time you apply the mixture on bread slices, set oil on medium heat for frying.
• Cut the bread diagonally into triangles, further dip into the batter and coat well.
• Deep fry the pakoras in hot oil on medium high heat until crisp & golden brown in colour. Fry as many as you would wish to.
• You can also serve bread pakora at this stage, basically after frying with chutney of your preference, but if you would like to eat this in a bit different way, please go ahead and make chaat as I have made.
