Kadhi Pakora

Kadhi ( made using curd) is very popular throughout India and every state has their own unique ways of making it. This version of Kadhi Pakora is very popular especially in the North. Spiced curd with besan and onion pakoras submerged in them. Best served along with rice. Here is my take on the famous Kadhi Pakora !!
