    Makes 12 onion bhajis
    Ingredients:
    4 onions
    1 peeled potato
    2 green chillies
    3/4 tbsp salt
    1 tbsp mixed curry powder
    1 tsp turmeric
    1 tsp mixed cumin and coriander powder
    1 tsp panch phoron
    Pinch of dried methi leaves
    Handful of fresh coriander leaves (extra for garnishing)
    3 eggs
    1.5 to 2 cups of gram flour
    Method:
    1) Cut the onions into thin slices and place into a mixing bowl
    2) Cut the potato into thin strips and place into a mixing bowl
    3) Finely cut the green chillies into smaller pieces and add to the mixing bowl
    4) Add the salt, mixed curry powder, turmeric, mixed cumin and coriander powder, panch phoron, methi leaves and coriander leaves into the mixing bowl
    5) Mix the ingredients together and ensure that all the onion and potato are covered in spices
    6) Add the 3 eggs to the mixture and mix again, making sure all the onion and potato are covered in egg
    7) Add the gram flour and mix. Make sure the mixture is not too wet. If it is then add some more flour. Make sure it is not too dry either. You want to be able to squeeze a handful of onions together and they should hold their shape for a few seconds but not dripping. That is the ideal consistency
    8) Wet your hands with water so that the onion mixture does not stick to your hands. Then squeeze a handful of the mixture in your hands and drop in a medium high temperature frying pan. Make sure the batter starts bubbling as soon as it is in the oil
    9) Stir the onion bhajis around and flip frequently
    10) Once they are golden brown (about 5 minutes) remove from the oil
    11) Garnish with coriander and serve with some mint sauce

    I will try these, Ive been making Bhaghis for years and never found the recipie just right as good as the tennis ball bhajis on Oxford road in Manchester as student in 1991. They were the best onion Bhaghis ive ever had and Ive lived in Bradford for 10 years. The centres were still soft and guwy , the outers crispy, in a polysterene tray , divine.

      Hi Usha, thanks for watching. I have never tried freezing them but you can partially fry the onion bhaji so that they are yellow in colour and hold their shape. These can then be refrigerated and fried later, within 3 days. Let me know if it works if you freeze them!

    what is the TRUE indian style of bhaji ? the loose style in this video or the tighter more orange coloured balls in BIR resturants , or does it purely depend on the region and or family in india and how they cook

    • @PrepCookEat
      @PrepCookEat  2 роки тому +7

      I think it depends on the region you are from. I'm sure it is different in India and Pakistan but these are restaurant style bhajis in London. Again there are some differences amongst UK styles but generally they are all similar! Hope you enjoyed the video and please subscribe for more😁

    • @raykent3211

      Quelques uns sont assez evident, voici des autres:
      Chilli = piment
      Salt = sel
      Mixed curry powder = melange d'épices pour cari (eg madras) en poudre. Mélange pour couscous serait pas exact mais pas mal non plus.
      Turmeric = cucurma
      Panch phoron = completement inconnu à moi!
      Methi = methi, pas si facile a trouver.
      Gram flour = farine de pois chiche. Remplacez avec 2/3 farine de blé + 1/3 maizena s'il faut.
      On peut trouver des choses pour la cuisine indienne chez Pankaj Sharma sur internet.
      Bon chance!

    Needs to be double fried. On the second fry you need to gently break the bhaji open lightly so that oil can get inside and cook through as the first clip it looks doughy and undercooked

    • @PrepCookEat
      @PrepCookEat  3 роки тому +5

      Hey thanks for watching! We try to go for the crispy outside soft inside with our bhajis. The inside is definitely not doughy but it is soft. I know for our homemade style bhajis we prefer to have it crispier. However this recipe was for the restaurant style bhajis that you get. Hope that helps!
