Kaddu Phool Ke Pakoday<\/em> is zucchini blossom fritters in Hindi<\/em>. Think of it as an Indian version of the Italian preparation Fiori di Zucca Ripieni. Only the Indian version is spiced as expected. Pakoras<\/em> aka fritters in this case fried vegetable fritters made with a batter of besan, chickpea flour and a few spices. I skipped the chickpea flour and used the Japanese tempura batter for its lightness yet very crunchy texture. In my opinion nothing beats the texture of tempura, its light and yet crispy and that is the best form of fried food. The best part is I didn’t deep fry these blossoms, simply pan fried in 2 tablespoons of oil on medium-high heat does the trick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The only problem is zucchini blossoms have a short season and a very short life even refrigerated. So if you find them fresh in your farmers market or grocery store grab them and make these delicious snacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
