Onion Pakoray (Fritters)
Serves 6
When it is raining outside, I feel like making these. Somehow, the aroma it gives is so wonderful that you can’t just eat 2-4 of these. They taste hot, soft, spicy and crispy all in the same bite. An extremely easy snack to make that can satisfy your hunger in minutes. It is very filling and is often made in Ramadhan.
