Paneer pakora is a popular North Indian deep-fried snack, with a crispy outer layer of spicy gram flour batter and a soft-moist paneer slice inside.
There are many other versions of the same using bread slices, potato filling, chutneys etc. All are deep-fried.
Here, I‘ve created the basic version of it with No Oil or a very little oil to grease the waffle maker plate. These waffles are a must try. So very easy and interesting to kids. These make an excellent breakfast or evening snack or lunch box recipe.
- 1 cup Gram Flour
- 4 Paneer Slices (about 2 mm. of thickness)

- 1 medium Green Chili (finely chopped)
- 1 tbsp. Fresh Coriander Leaves (finely chopped)
