by onion bhajis, i presume you mean the batter dipped
ones. Ok,
these are pretty easy to make.
Cut 1 medium sized onion into thin slices.
Take bengal gram flour, i don't know the exact amount
so just
approximate. Mix water in this until the consistency
is such
that it pour out thick. Add a little salt & some
red chilli
powder (if u like it spicy).
Heat some (actually 1 cup) oil in a small wok or frying
pan.
Dip the onion in the batter & then insert it into
the oil when
the oil begins to send out strong fumes. Let it fry
in the oil
for some time & then turn it around. Actually,
the first one
usually gets screwed up, so go ahead & keep trying.
You can use the following vegetables instead of onion:
bell peppers
potato
raw bananas
ripe bananas (yum)
Cauliflowers
Spinach
Peanuts
You can even use bread instead of onion if u like.
That tastes
really good. :-)
Hope this helped.
Cheers
P.S. You could even use a mixture of all the veggies.
Also
instead of deep frying in oil, my roommate & I do
the foll:
Take a small non-stick vessel, pour a little oil in
it. Let it
head & spread on to all the sides. Then our in
yur batter. Just
like fried egg actually. Turn it around once the top
side is one
& most important, cook on slow fire.
