Onion bhajis are the perfect
snack to complement to any
Indian meal. However, in the past bhajis are said to have been too fatty for people who are on
calorie controlled
diets. I have managed to find a recipe that suits the diet needs of many people who like to eat Indian food but find it way too fatty.
Ingredients
To make the onion bhaji you will need a number of different ingredients. The ingredients you will need are as follows:
One large onion, diced into small, square pieces.
195 grams of cooked new potatoes (around ten small new potatoes).
195 grams of cooked chickpeas (around half a large tin).
A teaspoon of curry powder.
One large egg.
Method
1. Dice the onion into small, square pieces and place in a frying pan with a little oil, leaving the pan to heat up and soften the onions slightly. Leave the onion in the frying pan for only a short period of time until they are soft – do not let them start to brown!
2. Drain the new potatoes and the chickpeas and place them into a bowl and then mash them rigorously until they form a smooth paste.
3. Add the onion to the paste mixture, along with the curry powder and stir well. Now add the egg and shape the bhajis into a rounded shape. You should be able to make at least eight, depending on how large you make them.
4. Place the bhajis into the oven at a low light and cook them for around twenty minutes or until they are golden brown.
