Since we couldn't have the family over we opted for more snack foods for this year's meal. We had beautiful spinach from the farmer's market and plenty of onions so I decided to do a riff on a snack favorite, Onion Pakora. These green & gold crunchy savory fritters were the perfect addition to this year's Ugadi dinner!
So here is my recipe for Spinach & Onion Pakora:
