Slice the onion thinly and cut the potatoes small; small pieces will not stay raw inside.
Mix the chickpea flour, cumin, and salt, then add water little by little to make a thick batter that falls from a spoon.
Add the vegetables to the batter and mix for 2 minutes until every piece is coated.
Heat the oil to 175°C and drop spoonfuls of batter in batches, frying for 4 minutes.
Move the pakoras to a wire rack and serve hot without stacking them, so they stay crisp.
💡 Tip: Baking soda speeds cooking, but use very little; too much leaves a soapy trace in the flavor.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve hot with mint chutney.
