About Fish pakora

Fish Pakora is a flavorful appetizer originating from Indian cuisine, known for its crisp texture and vibrant spices. Made by marinating bite-sized pieces of fish in a blend of gram flour, turmeric, chili powder, cumin, and other aromatic seasonings, these morsels are then deep-fried until golden. The dish typically uses white fish varieties, which are rich in protein and omega-3 fatty acids essential for heart and brain health. While the spices used in the batter contribute antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, Fish Pakora is deep-fried, making it higher in calories and saturated fats compared to baked or grilled alternatives. It pairs well with tangy mint chutney or yogurt sauce, offering a refreshing balance to its bold and spicy flavors. Best enjoyed occasionally as part of a balanced diet, it showcases the bold culinary traditions of South Asia.
