First take a large bowl and add the thinly sliced onions.

Now add the besan/chickpea flour, ajwain, rice flour, red chilli powder, turmeric powder, asafoetida and mix them thoroughly.

The moisture from the onion will be sufficient for the dough to start getting formed if you require to sprinkle some water to it and again mix it thoroughly.

Meanwhile, bring some oil to heat in a deep pan for deep frying, you test the oil for heat by adding a small ball of the dough. If it lifts to the surface immediately the oil is ready or else wait for a minute or two and start frying.

Drop small balls of batter into the oil and deep fry them till they look crisp and golden in colour.

Remove them with a slotted spoon so the oil can drain from the onion pakoras and transfer them on to a paper towel and let them rest for a&nbsp;minute or so to absorb the rest of the excess oil.

If you are serving them with the fried green chilli, you can fry the green chilli in the same oil.

chickpea flour

yeast ((optional))

tsp cumin

salt

tsp turmeric

water

lime juice ((or lemon juice))

green hot chili pepper (finely chopped)

Tbsp parsley (chopped (or cilantro))

Tbsp oil (for frying (I used coconut))

You can watch the video in the post for visual instructions.First, peel and then use a sharp knife or mandoline to slice the onions into thin strips and set them aside.

In a medium/ large mixing bowl, combine all the remaining ingredients (except the oil) and whisk into a medium-thick batter. If the batter is too thick, add a little more water, one teaspoon at a time.

Stir in the sliced onion (I used my hands), mixing well until they’re fully and evenly coated in batter.

Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium heat with at least one tablespoon of coconut oil. Once hot, use tongs to drop small portions of the battered onions into the pan (I cooked 4 fritters at a time).

Cook the onion bhaji for about 2-4 minutes per side until golden and crispy. Repeat with the remaining onion mixture and enjoy!

Indian Onion Bhaji (Healthy Recipe)

These old-fashioned crispy onion fritters are so easy to make with a handful of simple ingredients. Full of delicious onion flavors, these Amish-style onion fritters are absolutely irresistible.

Onion Fritters

oil (for frying)

all-purpose flour

cornmeal

sugar

baking powder

milk

lemon juice

pepper

paprika

garlic powder

green onions (chopped (white parts and green parts))

Add about an inch of oil to a heavy-bottomed pan. Place it over medium heat.

Line a small sheet pan or large plate with paper towels and set aside.

Add the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika to a large bowl. Mix to combine.

Add the cold milk and lemon juice to the bowl and stir until combined.

Add the diced onions and green onions to the bowl and quickly stir to combine.

Carefully spoon a heaping tablespoon of batter at a time into the hot oil. Avoid overcrowding the pan, making sure there’s space between each spoonful. You will need to do this in multiple batches.

Fry for 3 to 4 minutes per side, depending on how large the spoonful is, before flipping and frying for another 3 to 4 minutes or until the batter is crispy and golden.

Transfer the fried onion fritters to the paper towels to drain any excess oil and continue to fry the rest of the batter. Serve immediately as is or with a dip of your choice.

Instead of Milk AND Lemon Juice, just use buttermilk.
