Tips for How to cook Paneer Pakora:
Can I make Paneer Pakoras ahead of time?
While Paneer Pakoras are best enjoyed fresh and hot, you can prepare them ahead of time and reheat them in a preheated oven until crisp and warmed through. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days.
What can I serve with Paneer Pakoras?
Paneer Pakoras are typically served with green chutney, tamarind chutney, or ketchup for dipping. They can also be enjoyed with a side of sliced lemon wedges, or a fresh salad for added flavor and crunch.
Are Paneer Pakoras gluten-free?
Yes, Paneer Pakoras are naturally gluten-free as they are made with chickpea flour (besan) instead of wheat flour. However, be sure to check the labels of any pre-packaged ingredients for potential cross-contamination with gluten.
Can I freeze Paneer Pakoras?
While Paneer Pakoras can be frozen, their texture may change slightly upon thawing. Freeze the cooked pakoras in a single layer on a baking sheet until firm, then transfer them to a freezer-safe bag or container for up to 1-2 months. Reheat them in a preheated oven until crisp and heated through before serving.
Paneer Pakoras are a delightful and irresistible snack that’s perfect for any occasion. Whether enjoyed as an appetizer, a tea-time treat, or part of a festive spread, their crispy exterior and creamy interior are sure to satisfy your cravings.

Dear Manjula ji, I tried this recipe n pakoras turned out super delicious. One question, I have leftover dahi marinate mixture, which other dish/snack can I cook using that mixture. Regards Ritu

Hello Manjula, I was looking for an appetizer to offer on New Year and thanks to you I found these pakoras. I tried using mozzarella cheese because it is easily available where I live, it came out pretty well I just made each pakora bigger because if they are too small they will lose water (they will still be good but not very cheesy). Of course they won’t retain their cube shape but the inside will be melty like a panzerotto. I will try the original one day, in the meantime these have been appreciated by all. Ps: in my region (Liguria) there is a recipe similar to pakora called panissette, we use chickpea flour not besan though. It was once a very popular street food but with modernization it got lost a bit sadly. One day I hope to revive many of the dishes of my old ancestors because it would be a pity to let them disappear.
I am a vegetarian and will try this recipe. It looks yummy
Manjula ji I love your Recipes. I love to cook also . My mother taught me & she used to make paneer pakoras. She used to add Ginger,garlic paste & Ajweyan seeds in marinate. And in batter no Jeera. Instead she used roasted jeera Kali mirch ground & Chaat Masala on the fried Pakoras.
Will these be good for the next day? If so, can I keep them in the fridge overnight and just microwave them ?
Supriya, cook them half way then re fry when ready to serve or heat them in oven 350 degree for about 15 minutes
how to whisk the batter??
Kindly also send translation in Hindi…..
To good use

Hello Mam,
Your’s all recipes are so nice and delicious , I have one question in about the Paneer Pakoda recipe, I tried this recipe at home, When I add Baking soda in better, and deep fry the paneer pakoda.. then I found that paneer pakoda absorbed oil.
Plz help me…what I do for get rid absorbed oil..
I made this recipe! Although it was delicious, the paneer seperates from the dough in the pan, so i dont get the whole paneer pakora. What could be the cause of this aunty? Thank u in forward for your response. Kind regards
Lovely receipies….
There’s nothing better than Indian vegetarian dishes, I can’t wait to make these for a little get-together this evening.
I just made these for today’s lunch. “Addictive” isn’t a word I use lightly, but in this case entirely appropriate. Delicious.
If you’re going to be making pakoras anyway, I recommend you try this recipe!
