Non Fried Onion pakora
It's pouring heavily in Bangalore these days and the first thing that comes to my mind when I think of Rain is pakoras. Piping hot pakoras along with a cup of steaming hot tea is what I crave for as soon as it starts to rain.
We at home love to sip on Hot Masala Chai with our snacks. 
So you get the same tasty dish that can be enjoyed in a healthy, guilt-free way. Have it with Raw Mango and Coriander Chutney, or a Moroccan Harissa Sauce for a unique twist.
