About Cheese pakoras

Cheese Pakoras are a savory Indian snack, often enjoyed as a teatime treat or appetizer. Originating from traditional South Asian cuisine, these pakoras involve dipping cubes or slices of cheese, typically paneer, in a seasoned gram flour batter made with spices like turmeric, chili powder, and cumin. The coated cheese is then deep-fried until golden and crispy, creating a delightful combination of creamy interior and crunchy exterior. While Cheese Pakoras are rich in flavor and provide protein from the cheese and flour, they are typically fried, which increases calorie and fat content. Moderation is key to enjoying this indulgent snack, and it pairs wonderfully with chutneys or dips. For a healthier twist, baking or air-frying can help reduce oil while maintaining the signature texture.
