Genuine bhajis are made with gram flour, from chick peas. I've decided to go for a bit of a cheats version by using regular white flour and getting the colour from tumeric. Ingredients:
50 g self raising flour |
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric |
1/2 red chile, finely chopped |
10 sage leaves, shredded |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 onion, about 100g, sliced |
vegetable oil, for deep frying |
Directions:
1. Place the flour, tumeric, chilli, sage and salt in a bowl. Add enough water - about 5 Tbsp - to form a very thick batter. Stir in the onion.
2. Heat 5cm of oil in the wok and carefully drop the mixture into it using 2 tbsp - 1 to scoop up the batter and the other to ease it into the oil. Cook for 4-5 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through. Drain on kitchen paper and serve warm.
