I have pleasant memories of rainy evenings or cold wintery days, in London. While watching the footy with my dad and my sisters, my mum would rustle up crispy and spicy onion pakoda/bhajis. Crispy Onion Bhajis/Pakoda make the perfect naturally gluten free and vegan snack or starter. Light, crispy, and completely moreish but they are fried!!! This recipe is a healthy take on a popular Indian dish as is baked. There are many who are probably wincing at the thought but for the health of it I’m willing to try anything. Baked Onion Bhaji/Pakoda here we go....the full 4 min recipe video with me actually talking and not a voiceover is on Facebook 🤣 Ingredients 1 cup gram flour/Chana flour 1tsp baking powder 1 1/2 tsp salt 1 1/2 tsp chili powder 3/4 tsp tumeric powder 3/4 tsp garam masala powder 1 medium potato grated 1 medium onion sliced 2 green chili chopped 1/3 cup coriander chopped 1/3 cup water add more if needed Method 1. Preheat an oven to 180 degrees 2. Add water to the gram flour and make a thick paste. 3. Add in the potatoes, onions, spices, salt and baking powder and mix and bind everything together. 4. Spray and cook and add spoonfuls of the mixture to oven proof ramekin dishes or a muffin tray. 5. Bake for 30-35 mins until golden and crisp. 6. Serve with a pot of hot karak or masala chai. Nostalgic memories and heavenly bliss!!!
