Chef's Notes
Do not let the salted lauki sit too long before mixing, or it will weep out way too much water and turn your batter into a sad puddle.
Pro Tip
Drop a tiny crumb of batter into the hot oil; if it sizzles and floats right back up with a grin, your oil is at the throne-worthy temperature.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
If you crank the flame too high, your pakoras will burn to a crisp on the outside while the inside stays raw, gooey, and utterly tragic.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
Why did the lauki cross the road? To escape being grated into a pakora batter by an overly enthusiastic chef!
The Culinary Science
Salt draws out water from the grated bottle gourd via osmosis, which conveniently replaces added water in the batter with pure vegetable nectar.
