Step 1

To a large mixing bowl, add onions, turmeric, salt, chilli, coriander ginger garlic paste, chickpea flour (besan)and lightly toss the mixture. Make sure your onions are sliced very thinly - Thinly sliced onions will result in crispier pakodas.

Step 2

Add water little by little until a very sticky mixture is formed just until everything is well combined and looks easy to be scooped out with the help of a cookie scooper or holds its shape when trying to pick with hands.

Step 3

Add about 2-3 tbsp of mixture to hot oil and deep fry until golden brown (read notes to see how to keep them crispy)

Step 4

Assemble your burgers by adding some mayo to the grilled/ toasted burger buns, lettuce, tomatoes and 2-4 pieces of onion fritters. Serve hot & enjoy with garlic fries or sweet potato fries.
