Pyaaz ki Pakodi / Onion Fritters

                      At my place Pyaaz ki pakodi or onion fritters are a common sight at the road side kiosks along with the other variety i.e. palak ki pakodi or spinach fritters.

                      Rainy day, a book and a cup of tea by the window side along with Onion fritters form a perfect picturesque.
