Pakora/bhajia, potato and cauliflower, fried in vegetable oil, homemade

These homemade potato and cauliflower pakoras, also called bhajias, are vegetables coated in chickpea flour batter and fried in vegetable oil. They provide mainly fat and carbohydrate, with some protein and fibre. Per 100g, they contain 22g of fat, 24g of carbohydrate, 8.6g of protein and 4g of fibre.

Fat and carbohydrate supply energy, while protein supports the maintenance and repair of body tissues. Fibre helps support normal bowel function.
