Ingredients

2 cups (250g / 8.8 oz) Besan (also known as: Chickpea Flour or Gram Flour)
1 tablespoon crushed red pepper
¾ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon baking powder
1 green chilii pepper, sliced
½ cup Cilantro leaves, chopped
1 yellow onion, sliced into 1/8-inch half moons (should look like this)
1 cup luke-warm water
Sunflower oil (or any neutral oil like vegetable, safflower, canola, etc.), for deep frying

Method

Fill an 8-inch cast-iron skillet half-way up with oil. Heat the oil to 360-375ºF.
In a large bowl, mix together the besan, red chili flakes, salt, baking powder, sliced chilli pepper, cilantro, and sliced onion.
Slowly add in the water, while mixing with a wooden spoon or your hands. Vigorously mix for a couple of seconds. The batter should be thick, almost like heavy (double) cream and there should be air bubbles throughout.
Once the oil is heated, carefully place in heaping tablespoonfuls of batter into the hot oil. Try not to overcrowd the oil because it will result in greasy pakoras. Fry until the pakoras are a pecan-brown. Drain on a cooling rack placed over a cookie sheet.
Repeat with the remainder of the batter.
Serve right away, and enjoy.

Only the outer layer of this pakora is tasty but the ingredients in the inner which are just boiled, i think they need more spices to make it spicy.
