What is this Indian dish?

Pakora, also known as pakoda or bhaji, is a popular Indian snack made by batter-coating ingredients like vegetables (such as potatoes, onions, cauliflower, or spinach) or meat (such as chicken or fish) and deep-frying them until crispy. The batter is typically made from chickpea flour (besan), mixed with spices like turmeric, chili powder, cumin, and coriander. Pakoras are enjoyed across India as a savory and crunchy snack, often served with chutneys or sauces for dipping, and are a favorite during festivals, gatherings, and as a street food delicacy.
