Pakora
Not a big fan of pakora myself but I went for an Indian earlier and I had haggis pakora and it was bloody magic.

Haggis and cauliflower are two of my favourite things to 'pakora'. I've made haggis pakora at home. Spot on if you get a good quality spicy haggis.
Used to be a great wee place in Glasgow. Murphy's Pakora Bar. Selection of 3 pakoras with a couple of sauces and a nice dahl for about £5. My brother from down south used to want to go there every night when he came up to visit. Sadly missed (the pakora bar, not my brother).

Re: Pakora
My mum makes parkora's every 6-8 weeks, probably the only deep fried food I now eat. The only other time I have them is at Sikh weddings, traditionally just before the ceremony along with somosa's, tea and barfee

I've tried the supermarket ones..just aint the same

Re: Pakora
Pakora, samsosa and every other Indian food is boring. Especially when you have them like every month for some family function or anything else.

Now shepards pie.......MMMMM DAMN THATS GOOD.
