3. Add Spices:To the batter, add ajwain, salt to taste, turmeric powder, and red chili powder. Mix all the ingredients thoroughly to ensure an even coating.

4. Fry the Pakodas:Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat. Dip each tomato slice into the batter, ensuring it’s fully coated. Carefully place them into the hot oil.

5. Cooking to Perfection:Fry the Tomato Pakodas until they turn golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes. Remove them from the oil and drain excess oil on paper towels.

6. Serving Suggestion:Serve your delicious Tomato Pakodas hot with your favorite sauce or chutney for dipping.
