Shallow fried onion bhajis

Much healthier than the bhajis you'll get from your local take-away, and cheaper too! Serves 2.

Ingredients

• 3 oz (85g) gram flour
• 1 tbsp ground coriander
• Pinch of methi
• Pinch of cumin seeds
• Pinch of salt
• Water to form the batter
• 1 large onion, thinly sliced
• Vegetable oil for shallow frying

Method

1. In a bowl mix the gram flour, spices and salt with the water to form a smooth, pouring batter. 
2. Add the onion to the batter and leave to stand for 15 minutes.
3. Over a high heat drop half the mixture into a lightly oiled pan forming a pancake. Cook on both sides until brown and no liquid surfaces when pressed with a spatula. 
4. Repeat with the remaining half of the batter.
