Karhi Pakora is a traditional dish made by preparing a spiced yogurt-based curry (karhi) and deep-fried gram flour (besan) fritters (pakoras). The karhi is made by whisking yogurt with gram flour and simmering it with spices like turmeric, cumin, coriander, and red chili powder, giving it a rich, tangy flavor. The pakoras, made from gram flour batter with onions or spinach, are fried until golden and crispy before being added to the karhi. This dish is often enjoyed with steamed rice and is a popular comfort food, especially during rainy or cold weather.
