Fish Pakoras are a popular snack rooted in South Asian cuisine, especially celebrated in Indian and Pakistani kitchens. Made by coating bite-sized pieces of fish in a spiced chickpea flour batter, they are then deep-fried until golden and crispy. The batter typically includes garlic, ginger, chili powder, cumin, and turmeric, giving the pakoras their bold flavors. Known for being rich in protein and omega-3 fatty acids, thanks to the fish, they offer essential nutrients that support heart and brain health. However, the deep-frying process adds saturated fats, and calories can be higher than some healthier cooking methods. Pairing them with fresh chutneys or salads can balance their nutritional profile. As a treat or appetizer, Fish Pakoras are celebrated for their combination of crunchy texture and vibrant spices, making them a favorite comfort food worldwide. Moderation is key to enjoying their rich taste without overindulging.
