Onion fritters

Onion fritters are one of my favorite snacks. Indian name for onion fritters is “piyaz ke pakode” piyaz means onion and pakode means fritters. These are very good in taste and very crispy. The more you use curry leaves, green chilies, coriander and onion the better taste you get for these yummy-crispy pagodas’.  In India many type of fritters are made using various vegetables, meat and chicken which I’ll post later. Remember use less water app.1or2 spoons.
