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

Your video was clear, concise and easy to understand! First recipe where I've seen eggs added...I imagine a little water might have a similar effect.....I will definitely try your recipe!
Esto es riquísimo!!? Alguien cocinó este platillo para mi alguna vez .
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.
Sounds delicious! Glad you enjoyed the video. Please subscribe and like😁

Its like cucur or cekodok in Malaysia
Great! Can I prep it ready for frying and leave it in the fridge for a day?
Hey Mike, yes it should be fine to leave in the fridge for one day. Just make sure that you cover it so that the mixture doesn't dry out too much. Thanks for watching and please subscribe!
@@PrepCookEat Thanks, I did, and they were a great success. Thanks for the recipe!
Is it necessary to add egg never seen before I guess you can add water gradually to help combine ingredients
Yes you are right. Egg is not necessary and you can add water.
I can make the bhajis no problem but can’t get the mint sauce right any idea? Please or video?
Could you do these in an air fryer?
😮❤🎉😊
This is the best onion bhajis 🧅 💕
I made these for the first time with this receipe l found them to be a little bland so l shall add more salt and more chilli pepper next time l cook this receipe and they should be just right.
Can we have the recepe in hindi
👌💕
Thanks for watching Mary! Please subscribe and like for more content!
Nice! What is that green dip? Can you give a recepie for that?
Thanks for watching Krisztian! The green sauce is mint sauce. I will add it to my list of videos to make. Please like and subscribe 😀
@@PrepCookEat done! Is it coriander lime mint garlic and yoghurt?
Oooh close! It has corriander, mint, yoghurt, milk, sugar and green colouring. I will upload a vid for it soon!
What is panch phoron
Fenugreek Leaves
😍💕🥰😘❤️👏👌
Can we have the onion bajias in hindi
Can you freeze onion pakoras?
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!
I’m vegan what can I replace the eggs with
Thanks for watching Asma! I'm not sure to be honest as I haven't tried making a vegan version of this. I have read you can try using coconut yoghurt or blended tofu as a substitute. Let me know how it goes if you try it using those ingredients!😃
Pourriez vous mettre la liste des ingrédients en français svp?
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!

The best L have ever seen.

Where did you buy that knife?
Hi, we get our knives from a knife specialist in London. They provide us with new sharpened knives every month!
Steam the potatoe. Please. Higher temp. Better.
No list of ingredients
Hi Denise, the full list of ingredients can be found in the description of the video. Hope that helps!
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
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!
This is a vegetarian dish and in the south we would never put eggs!
Onion bujji basic rule is, it should be crispy! It is missing here!!
It's not vegitarian as you put eggs. Why ?
Egg comes plant ???
Hey, thanks for watching. Eggs are vegetarian but not vegan.
fingernails stained for days
Proof that you have been cooking 😂
Among us
Kinda sus
Thanks Aveline
@@ethuum Haha. Thanks Ethan
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
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😁
Bir cuisine is a style in its own right. Bir had the round balls of onion bhaji whereas Indian cuisine has the pakora/pagoda. Hth
How do you do this without the egg?
Hi! Thanks for watching. You can try using an egg vegan substitute but you can even remove the egg and just add a little bit of water instead until the batter becomes thick and sticky. Let me know how it works out! 😄
Add Eno, or half teaspoon baking powder , or little baking Soda, I have never know anyone put egg in. I use Eno .
In India they make it without egg and its delicious
