Thanks, Josh Ingredients ## 4 medium onion (brown/white) 2 green chilli (sliced finely) 1 small coarsely grated potato (50g ) 1 tablespoon split red lentils 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon fennel seeds 1 egg (whisked) (optional) 1 tablespoon mix powder or curry powder 8-12 tablespoons gram flour (or 50/50 gram flour/rice flour for a crispier bhaji) 1/4 cup fresh/chopped coriander 1 tablespoon garlic paste 1 tablespoon ginger paste 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder 1/2 teaspoon coriander powder 1/2 teaspoon cumin powder 1/2 teaspoon fenugreek leaves / kasoori methi water (as required) Method ## to begin heat a fryer, or a pan half full with oil at 170 Celsius. You want to use a thermometer to keep this temperature around this point so the bhaji cook thoroughly but do not burn rinse the lentils in a cup and allow them to soak in water for around 10 minutes to soften Slice the onions in half, remove the skins and then slice again into strips about 5mm wide and place them in a bowl finely slice the green chillies and coarsely grate the potato and add them to the onions add the the salt, fennel seeds, egg, mix powder, gram flour, fresh chopped coriander, garlic paste, ginger paste, turmeric powder, coriander powder, cumin powder and dried fenugreek leaves to the onions mix thoroughly and allow to sit for 5 minutes to allow the salt to start extracting some moisture from the onions and for the spices to penetrate now start by adding around 6 tablespoons of the gram flour to the onions and mix well but carefully with your fingers continue to add more gram flour a tablespoon at a time until the mix becomes really sticky and clumps together wet your hands slightly (it stops the batter sticking), take a small handful of onions and mould them gently into the size of a small tennis ball. Don't press too hard as the middles will be unable to cook. Gently place each bhaji ball into the oil and allow to cook, stirring carefully frequently for around 6-8 minutes until golden and crispy remove and drain and serve with mango chutney or as part of your meal My mamgo chutney recipe: https://thecurrykid.co.uk/recipe/hot-... ############################################ If you like this recipe, please like, comment and subscribe # ############################################ More dishes ## All my videos: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list...
