Bread pakora or Bread Bhaji is an Indian fried snack. A common street food, it is made from bread slices, gram flour, and spices among other ingredients. Bread Pakora is prepared by dipping triangular bread slices in a spicy gram flour batter and frying them. It also includes stuff like mashed potatoes. green chutney, a slice of paneer.
I made little bit changes to make bread pakora healthier. I replaced potato with sweet potato, add oats flour with gram flour and its roasted on tawa with little oil. Its perfect savory snack in this Holi.
