Mumbai's monsoon is in full swing, and with the rains comes the irresistible craving for hot, crispy snacks paired with a steaming cup of chai.
While roadside pakoras remain a seasonal favourite, concerns over hygiene and food safety during the rainy season often make homemade alternatives a smarter choice. Check out these 5 healthy options to try at home.
1. Sweet Potato Pakoras Thinly sliced sweet potatoes coated in a light besan batter and shallow-fried or air-fried. Rich in fibre, vitamin A, and natural sweetness, they're a healthier alternative to regular potato fritters.
2. Paneer & Oats Pakoras Protein-rich paneer cubes coated with crushed oats, besan, and spices before being air-fried or lightly fried. They stay crispy outside while remaining soft and filling inside.
