Onion #Pakora #Bhujia

A simple recipe that can be whipped up as a snack with just a few ingredients. Lovely with a cup of tea. A family favourite during my childhood.

Ingredients:

  • 1 large onion sliced thickly
  • 1-2red or green chillies chopped finely
  • 2 tablespoons coriander finely chopped
  • 3/4 cup chickpea flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 cup of water
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2-3 tablespoons of oil

1. Put all ingredients except onions in bowl and mix until a thick batter forms

2. Put onions into bowl and mix to cover in batter

3. Heat oil in non-stick pan and put dollops of onion and batter frying until golden on both sides and cooked through. Best to cook on medium heat so they donโ€™t burn and this allows more time for onions to cook through. Drain on kitchen paper.

4. Serve hot with a cup of tea.
