Air-Fried Paneer Pakoda Recipe I How To Make Paneer Pakoda In Air Fryer

Combine roughly chopped onion, finely chopped coriander and small paneer cubes in a bowl. Season with ginger, garlic, green chillies and common spices like coriander seeds, carom seeds, turmeric powder, red chilli powder, and asafoetida. Add salt as per taste.
Now, make the batter by combining besan, suji and rice flour. Suji and rice flour will help make the pakodas crispy without deep frying them. Add a pinch of baking soda too. Add a little water to bind the mixture (Remember you need more water if you are following the regular frying method. Keep it very little for air frying.)
Now place a parchment paper in the air fryer, grease it with oil and put small portions of the semi-dry mixture on it. Brush some oil over the pakodas and air fry for around 20 minutes. Your paneer pakodas are ready.
