Ingredients
- 4-5 Whole Eggs
- 1/2 cup Gram flour (besan)

- 1-2 teaspoons Red Chilli powder

Instructions
- To begin making the Egg Pakora recipe, in a small pot, add water and bring it to boil
- Once the water starts boiling, add a pinch of salt and eggs
- Cook them for about 15 minutes and remove from the flame
- Run the eggs under cold water immediately and remove their outer shell
- Slice the eggs into halves and set aside
- In a bowl, combine flour, turmeric powder, red chilly powder, and salt together
- Add water little by little and mix them well to prepare a batter
- It should be slightly thinner than Idli batter but not runny like dosa batter
- Meanwhile, heat oil in a kadai over medium flame
- Once the oil is hot, add a small ball of flour to check the state of oil
- If the ball rises steadily, then the oil is hot enough for frying pakoras
- If it raises slowly, then the oil should be heated for some more time
- Once the oil consistency is perfect, take a slice of egg, dip it in the flour and slowly drop them into the oil
- Cook until they turn golden on both the sides by flipping them occasionally
- Set them aside in a dish towel and repeat the same procedure for the remaining egg slices
- Prepare this spicy Egg Pakoras and serve with Tomato Garlic Chutney or any other chutney of your choice
