To get started with this particular recipe, we have to first prepare a few components. You can have my onion bhajis using 10 ingredients and 4 steps. Here is how you cook it.
The ingredients needed to make My Onion Bhajis:
- Prepare 2 onions, chopped in halves then into strips,
- Make ready 70 g plain flour,
- Make ready 5-6 tbsp water,
- Get 1 tsp turmeric,
- Make ready 1 tsp ground coriander,
- Take 1 tsp caraway seeds, ground, (I use mortar & pestle),

A bhaji is an Indian crispy fritter. Different vegetables are chopped small, then tossed in a batter with fragrant spices, chili, and cilantro, then deep fried until golden brown and crispy. The batter is light, flavourful, and usually made with gram (chickpea) flour. The key to a great onion bhaji is to slice the onion very finely - this is important so the onion has time to cook within the batter when frying.
Instructions to make My Onion Bhajis:
- Pour the oil into a large saucepan and heat until the oil is hot enough that it sizzles if you drop a tiny bit of onion in there. The temperature should be around 170 C.
- Combine all of the dry ingredients together then stir to combine. Then, add in a couple of spoons of water and stir, add more water bit by bit until a thick gloopy batter is formed with no lumps remaining. It's crucial to not make the batter too thin here, as it needs to adhere and stick to the onions well.
- Add the sliced onions into the batter and stir through until they are coated well in the thick batter. Take large spoonfuls of the coated onions and carefully place into the hot oil. Fry for around 3-4 minutes each side in batches until crispy and golden in colour. I did three at a time, try not to overcrowd the pan otherwise they'll stick together and the oil will reduce in heat.
- Very carefully remove using a slotted spoon, and leave upon some kitchen towel to soak up any excess cooking oil. Once cooled slightly, eat and enjoy! :)
If your onions are too chunky they'll end up raw inside the bhaji, missing out on the delicate, sweet taste of thinly sliced onions.
