Wash the spring onions thoroughly.

Chop the spring onions into larger pieces, not too finely.

Cut the white part of the spring onions into smaller pieces.

In a mixing bowl, add the chopped spring onions.

Add 7-8 finely chopped green chilies, 1 tablespoon coriander powder, 1 tablespoon red chili powder, and 0.5 teaspoon turmeric powder.

Grate one potato and add it to the mixture for better taste and crispiness.

Add 0.5 teaspoon amchur powder and 1-2 pinches of black pepper.

Mix well to combine all the spices evenly.

Add 1-1.5 tablespoons of rice flour to make the pakoras crispy.

Gradually add 2.5 tablespoons of gram flour until the mixture binds well without adding extra water.

Mix thoroughly, pressing down to ensure binding.

Add 1 teaspoon of salt according to taste.

Heat mustard oil on medium heat for frying.

Wet your hands slightly to make it easier to form balls of the batter.

Drop the balls into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.

Keep the flame on medium while frying.

Once one side is slightly brown, flip the pakoras to cook evenly.

Continue flipping until they are golden brown all around.

Remove the pakoras and drain on tissue paper to remove excess oil.

Prepare chutney by blending 4 garlic cloves, 2 green chilies, 2 tomatoes, and some coriander leaves with 1 tablespoon of salt.

Serve the pakoras hot with chutney or tea.
