Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, place the cabbage, sweet potato and shallots. Add the chickpea flour and cornstarch, toss to coat the vegetables. Add the cilantro, green chilis, garlic, ginger, chili powder, ground cumin, turmeric, salt, pepper and yogurt. Add 1/3 cup (75 mL) cold water. Using your hands, mix and massage the ingredients until a thick batter (similar to a thick pancake batter) coats the vegetables. If the batter is too thick, work in up to 3 tbsp (45 mL) additional water.

Step 2

In a heavy bottomed, high-sided pot, heat the oil over medium heat to 180°C (350°F) on a deep-fry/candy thermometer. Scoop spoonfuls of about 2 tbsp (30 mL) of the mixture for each pakora; carefully slide each portion into the hot oil. Fry a few at a time, turning occasionally, until crisp and golden, 3 to 4 min. Transfer fried pakoras to paper towel-lined plate to drain. Season with salt while hot and serve with dipping sauces, if desired.
