Pumpkin seeds, a widely enjoyed snack, find their way into a myriad of recipes, including various baked goods. Rich in protein, healthy fats, and an array of essential minerals such as magnesium, zinc, and potassium, these seeds are a nutritional powerhouse. In this particular recipe, we harness the flavorful potential of pumpkin seeds to craft delectable fritters, ideal for a satisfying snack.

Ingredients:

  • Pumpkin seed paste
  • Onion
  • Chili
  • Mustard oil
  • Salt

Instructions:

  1. Mix chopped onion and chili with mustard oil.
  2. Add salt to the mixture.
  3. Mix in the pumpkin seed paste.
  4. In a pan, put some mustard oil for frying.
  5. Take some of the mixtures and put them into the pan to fry. Once it turns brown (takes around 5 minutes), the pumpkin seed fritter is ready.
