Onions, chillies, paneer etc. are pretty common choices for pakoras. This time I gave mushrooms a shot.
Mix thickly sliced mushrooms with ginger/garlic paste, salt, any seasonings you want, an egg and besan (gram flour). I also threw in a little corn flower and baking soda for extra crunch and fluff.
Deep fry and serve with garlic chilli sauce and hot tea. Stare out the window at the rain and pretend to be Norah Jones.
