Freshly Made Pakoras From Scotland | The Pakora Explorer | Sheetal Revis | Scotistani
- 4 years ago
Meet Sheetal Revis, director of Scotland’s latest street food entry The Pakora Explorer , specialising in all things…Pakora! Born out of a love for food & a passion for hospitality the Pakora Explorer takes one of Scotland’s favourite snacks and brings it to life in a truly authentic way.
Scotistani caught up with her at The Big Feed event in Glasgow.Sheetal loves cooking and wanted to do something a bit different. She created The Pakora Explorer, converted a horse box into a food truck which she drives around Scotland. She goes to events and festivals and makes pakora for anybody who wants to eat it.
Sheetal’s parents are originally from Pakistan, they met in London and then moved to Orkney where Sheetal grew up. “In our home, we always had the ingredients to make fresh Pakora, these golden nuggets of goodness soon became very popular with our friends & neighbours around the island”, says Sheetal.
According to Sheetal, her vegetable pakora is the most popular which traditionally is potato and onion but she adds broccoli to it to give the veg pakora a Scottish touch.The fact that Sheetal uses her authentic family recipe makes her Pakoras different from what we buy in shops and takeaways. “We use our own masalas in the pakora mix so the garam masala is my grandmother’s recipe that she passed to mum and my mum passed to me. We stuck true to the original Pakistani recipe”.
