Oil to fry the pakora.

Method:

Wash and dry the  Bhindi.  Cut into small bite sized pieces.  Add besan, salt, chilli powder, cornflour, cumin seeds, ajwain, asafoetida and mix well. Heat oil in a pan.  Form balls of the mixture and drop them into the hot oil. Deep fry until crisp and golden brown in colour. Remove, drain and serve hot.
