FAQs?
What is the reason if my chicken pakora is not crispy?
You can coat the chicken cubes with bread crumbs to make them more crispy and crunchy. But make sure that your oil is hot enough to fry the chicken. It should not be overheated because in this case the chicken will soak the oil and will not be properly cooked.
Can we freeze chicken pakora?
Yes, cook them and cover them to store in the refrigerator after air cooling. You can reheat in the oil when required.
