Vegetable Bhaji's
« on: August 10, 2009, 06:37 PM »
Ingredients:
2 Large Carrots
1 x 10cm piece of ginger
1 large potato
2 medium red onions
2-3 fresh green or red chili?s or to taste
1 large bunch of fresh coriander
1 teaspoon of black mustard seeds
? tsp turmeric
1 heaped teaspoon cumin seeds
1 ? tsp sea salt
2 tbsp lemon or lime juice
50ml water
100g gram flour (ground chickpea flour)
1 litre of vegetable oil to fry

Peel and grate the carrots, ginger, potato and red onion into a large mixing bowl, roughly chop the Coriander and add to the bowl; finely chop the chillies and add to the bowl.
Now add the flour, mustard, coriander and cumin seeds, lemon juice and salt. Slowly add the water, based on consistency until you?ve got a nice thick mixture.

Heat the oil ? when you feel the oil is hot enough ? test the oil by dropping a few drops of the mixture into the oil ? if it sinks to the bottom and then quickly comes back to the surface the oil is ready. Carefully spoon in or by hand little 4cm balls of the mixture ? and repeat until you have several in the oil at once.
Cook for 5 minutes until golden brown.
Remove from the oil, straining to the side of the vessel to ensure you have drained as much oil as possible and set out onto absorbent paper. Continue until you have used up all the mixture.

Serve with some lime wedges and beer!!!
