Onion Bhaji ~How to cook perfect Onion Bhaji

The second recipe for BM#38 third week in the how to cook perfect series is Onion Bhajis (see the original recipe here) that we love the most. I normally make onion Bhajis and the new thing I learned from the site is addition of curry leaves, fennel seeds and garlic cloves. The outcome was marvelous with amazing flavors of all the spices giving pleasant aroma. So let’s start the recipe .yum

Ingredients:
1 cup gram flour
1/2 cup rice flour
1 tablespoon oil/butter , melted
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds
2 green chillies , chopped
2 teaspoon ginger, grated
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1/4 cup coriander, chopped
8-10 curry leaves, chopped
4 onions,chopped
Oil for frying

Method:
In a bowl sift the flours , then stir in the oil and lemon juice add cold water . Mix it gently . Stir in the spices, aromatics and herbs and add salt to taste. Stir in the onions so they are well coated.

Heat the oil in a large wok or pan.
When the oil is hot , wet your hands and shape tablespoon-sized amounts of the mixture into balls.
Drop the balls into the oil, stir and Cook for about four minutes, flipping occasionally, until crisp and golden, then drain on the paper towel.
