About This Dish
Chicken Pakora features bite-size chicken pieces marinated in ginger, garlic, and warming spices, then coated in seasoned chickpea flour batter and deep-fried to a shattering crunch.
At SPICE ROOM, we double-marinate for maximum flavor — first in a yogurt-spice blend for tenderness, then in our house chickpea batter spiked with ajwain (carom seeds) and Kashmiri red chili for color and mild heat. Served with mint chutney and tamarind sauce, these golden nuggets disappear fast. Perfect as a starter or shareable snack with drinks.
