Onion bhaji

Step 1

Sift the flour, chilli, turmeric, cumin, baking powder and salt into a large mixing bowl. Add the chopped coriander, onions and chillies and mix well.

Step 2

Preheat the deep fat fryer to 180C / 350F.

Step 3

Gradually add enough water to the flour mixture to form a thick batter, mixing very well so the onions are well coated.

Step 4

Very carefully drop spoonfuls of the mixture into the hot oil and fry until golden brown. Drain well on paper towels. Keep warm whilst you cook the remaining bhajis.

Step 5

Serve very hot.
