Same amounts of spinach, potatoes and grated carrots
1 onion
1 cup of chick pea flour
1 teaspoon of salt
¾ spoon of red chillies
1 teaspoon of whole cumin seeds
¾ spoon of garam masala
1. Cut equal amounts of spinach, potatoes and grated carrots
2. Combine all the ingredients together
3. Add lukewarm water to create a paste add more flour if needed but the consistency should be
firm enough for you to mould in your hands as it will be fried in a little oil to create the pakoras so if
its runny it won’t work.
4. Serve with a traditional Mint and Coriander Chutney Raita

2 large handfuls of coriander
A dash of water
1 large handful of mint
1 pinch of salt (to taste)

You don’t need to worry too much about the quantities with this recipe. Simply place all of the ingredients into a food blender and pulse down until a smooth thin paste is formed. The chutney should be thin enough to pour so just add some water if too thick.
