I know all reading
this recipe will curse me saying “she is posting this recipe now when rains
have gone”… So first I apologize for delay… Had been busy so couldn’t upload…
So here is a simple snack for evening
tea… A little variation from usual Onion bhaji…
Ingredients
1 cup American corn
1 cup sliced onions
1 medium boiled and
mashed potato
2 finely chopped
green chillies
Finely chopped coriander
leaves
Salt to taste
Red chilli powder to
taste
Oil for frying
2 tablespoon rice
flour
1-2 cups besan or
chickpea flour
1.
Roughly crush American corn in mixer. Don’t make
a fine paste.
2.
In a bowl add the crushed corn, onion, mashed
potatoes, green chillies, coriander leaves, red chilli powder, rice flour, salt
to taste.
3.
Mix all ingredients very nicely. Don’t add
water.
4.
Now add besan 1 tablespoon at a time to make
a thick batter just like we make for onion bhajis. If required now you can add little
water.
5.
After you get the required consistency,
adjust salt & red chilli according to your taste.
6. Heat the oil in a kadai.
7.
When the oil gets hot, lower the gas flame
and with help of a wet spoon pour dollops of the above batter in hot oil.
8.
Fry till golden brown.
9.
Remove the pakodas and spread them over kitchen
towel or tissue papers to drain excess oil.
10. Serve hot
with ketchup or pudina chutney and hot piping ginger tea.
Note:
In view of recent price hike of
onions, you can omit onions for this recipe till the price of onions comes down…
or you can add only 1 small finely diced onion, just to bring in the sweetness
and crunchiness…
Or else another option is, whenever
you feel like having “kanda bhajiya” but price tag of onions don’t allow you,
make this pakodas and satisfy your desire J
Enjoy Cooking J
