Capsicum Pakoda / Shimla Mirch Pakora

Onion Pakoda is a favourite tea time snack for everybody. Whenever if we want to treat our guest quickly in no time, our mind blows straight to bajji or pakoda. Here I have given a healthier pakoda recipe which is too crispy, yummy, spicy if it is accompanied with a hot masala tea. The addition of onion along with capsicum gives a regular onion pakoda taste and it retains crispiness. It is an easier and quick recipe and anybody can do it if you have ready made bajji mix in your hands. Lets start to make the capsicum pakodas.
