METHOD
- In a mixing bowl place the sliced onions. Add a pinch of salt and gently mix. Keep aside for 10 minutes.
- After 10 minutes, add besan, rice flour, red chilli powder, salt , saunf, dhania and hing to the sliced onions. The water from the onions would be enough to make a nice coating of all th ingredients on the slices of onions. In case you find the batter to be a bit dry, sprinkle very little water, sufficinet to just thickly coat the ingredients on the onions!
- In a deep kadhai, keep the oil for deep frying. Check if the oil is hot for frying the pakodas, by adding a drop of the pakoda batter. If it rises up immediately then the oil is ready for making bajjis. Reduce the flame a bit.
- With the help of a spoon, take a bit of the pakoda batter and with another spoon gently slide it into the kadhai. Take care while placing the pakodas into the oil. You can put upto 4 to 5 pakodas at one go.
- Slowly flip the pakodas to the other side and fry till they become golden brown.
- Transfer onto a tissue paper.
- Serve hot with Tomato Ketchup | Coriander Mint Chutney and garma garam Adrak wali chai!
