Recipe Description
Vegan Kadhi Pakora is a sumptuous, dairy-free adaptation of the traditional North Indian dish. This recipe replaces yogurt with a tangy blend of plant-based yogurt and chickpea flour to achieve the Kadhi’s characteristic sour taste and thick consistency. The Pakoras are made from a spiced mixture of gram flour and vegetables, deep-fried to golden perfection, and then immersed in the simmering Kadhi. The dish is seasoned with a tantalizing tadka of mustard seeds, cumin, dried red chillies, and curry leaves, releasing a fragrant aroma that promises a feast for the senses. Whether savored as a hearty dinner or a comforting meal on a rainy day, this Vegan Kadhi Pakora embodies the essence of Indian cuisine, offering a delightful experience of flavors and textures while being entirely plant-based.
