gram flour
🥗Healthier: chickpea flour
💰Cheaper: all-purpose flour
Chickpea flour is high in protein and fiber.
potatoes
🥗Healthier: sweet potatoes
💰Cheaper: none
Sweet potatoes add nutrients and a different flavor.
spinach
🥗Healthier: kale
💰Cheaper: cabbage
Kale offers similar nutrients and is often more available.
cumin seeds
🥗Healthier: ground cumin
💰Cheaper: none
Ground cumin is easier to use and still flavorful.
Start by dry roasting the cumin seeds and carom seeds to enhance the flavor.
In a big bowl, combine chopped spinach, cilantro, and sliced onions, breaking up the onions as you mix.
Add the roasted carom seeds, cumin, turmeric, and salt to the mixture and mix well, squeezing to release moisture.
Incorporate both gram flour and all-purpose flour along with baking powder into the mixture.
Add garlic last to avoid sticking, then mix everything well before adding water.
Gradually add water to achieve the right consistency, mixing until the batter is fluffy and well combined.
Heat canola oil in a pan, performing a drop test to check readiness.
Drop spoonfuls of batter into the hot oil, leaving space between each to avoid overcrowding.
Let the bhajias float to the top before moving them around to ensure even cooking.
Fry until golden brown, adjusting heat as necessary to avoid burning, which takes about five minutes.
Serve hot with chutney or chili sauce.
