Green chana pakoras, also known as "Hara Chana Pakoras," are delicious and nutritious fritters made from fresh green chickpeas. Here's a simple recipe to make them:

Ingredients:

- 1 cup fresh green chickpeas (hara chana), soaked overnight
- 1 medium-sized onion, finely chopped
- 2-3 green chilies, finely chopped (adjust to taste)
- 2 tablespoons fresh coriander leaves, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon ginger paste
- 1 teaspoon garlic paste
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon red chili powder (adjust to taste)
- Salt to taste
- 1/2 cup chickpea flour (besan)
- Oil for deep frying

Instructions:

1. Drain the soaked green chickpeas and pat them dry using a kitchen towel or paper towel. You want to remove excess moisture.

2. In a mixing bowl, coarsely crush the green chickpeas using a food processor or a mortar and pestle. Don't grind them into a paste; leave some texture.

3. To the crushed green chickpeas, add finely chopped onion, green chilies, coriander leaves, ginger paste, garlic paste, cumin seeds, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Mix well to combine all the ingredients.

4. Gradually add chickpea flour (besan) to the mixture to bind everything together. Mix until you get a thick batter-like consistency. You may not need to add water as the moisture from the green chickpeas and onions should be sufficient.

5. Heat oil for deep frying in a kadai or frying pan over medium heat.

6. Once the oil is hot, drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil carefully. Fry the pakoras in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.

7. Fry the pakoras until they turn golden brown and crisp on all sides. This should take about 3-4 minutes per batch.

8. Once done, remove the pakoras using a slotted spoon and drain excess oil on paper towels.

9. Serve hot with your favorite chutney or sauce.

Enjoy your crispy and flavorful green chana pakoras as a delicious snack or appetizer!
