AIR FRYER ONION BHAJI

Steps:

• Mix red onion, yellow onion, salt, jalapeno, garlic, coriander, chili powder, turmeric, and cumin in a large bowl. Stir until evenly combined. Add chickpea flour and water. Stir to combine into a thick batter. Add more water if necessary. Let mixture rest for 10 minutes.
• Preheat air fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Spray the air fryer basket with nonstick cooking spray. Spoon 2 tablespoons of batter into the basket and flatten. Repeat as many times as your basket allows without the bhajis touching.
• Cook in the preheated air fryer for 6 minutes. Mist the tops of each bhaji with cooking spray. Flip and cook 6 additional minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat with remaining batter.

CRISPY ONION BHAJI

Steps:

• Finely slice onion and carrot and add in a big mixing bowl.
• Add the spices, curry leaves, fresh chilis and coriander finely chopped. Combine all the ingredients.
• Add the gram flour into the mixture making sure the ingredients are well coated.
• Pour the water and lemon into the mixture and combine until all ingredients are perfectly incorporated.
• Heat some vegetable oil in a non-stick pan to medium temperature.
• Using a spoon, form the bhajis making sure they have a similar size so they cook evenly. Drop them into the pan once the oil is hot. To make sure you have the right consistency, they need to fall off the spoon easily.
• Cook until golden, turning them halfway to make sure they cook evenly on both sides.
• When cooked, take them out of the pan, and leave them on a kitchen paper for a couple of minutes to remove the excess of oil.
• Sprinkle some salt and fresh coriander on the top and serve.

AIR FRYER ONION BHAJIS

Steps:

• Cut the onions in half and then finely slice them. Mix the salt into them and set aside for an hour or up to four hours.
• After an hour the onions will be limp and moist. Squeeze the onions to release the water into the bowl. Add the remaining ingredients to the onions, being careful not to add to much gram flour. You should easily be able to pick up a ball of the onion mixture.
• Divide the mixture in to small bhajis.
• Heat your air fryer to 176c/380f. Spray the basket with oil spray generously.
• Place the bhajis in the basket. You will need to cook these in batches.
• After 15 minutes, your first batch will be cooked to perfection.
• Serve hot or at room temperature.

EASY ONION BHAJIS

Steps:

• Soak the onion in cold water while you make the base mix. Sift the flour and baking powder into a bowl, then add the chilli powder, turmeric, chopped chilli and a good sprinkling of salt. Mix in about 100ml of cold water to make a thick batter - add a splash more if it feels too stiff.
• For the raita, peel the cucumber and grate it into a sieve set over another bowl. Mix the remaining ingredients with some seasoning and the drained cucumber - squeezing out any extra moisture with your hands - then spoon into a small serving bowl.
• Drain the onion well and mix it into the batter. Heat about 5cm of oil in a wok or deep pan. Do not fill the pan more than a third full. Add a tiny speck of batter. If it rises to the surface surrounded by bubbles and starts to brown, then the oil is hot enough for frying.
• Lower heaped tbsps of the bhaji mixture into the pan, a few at a time, and cook for a few mins, turning once, until they are evenly browned and crisp, so about 3-4 mins. Drain on kitchen paper, sprinkle with a little salt and keep warm while you cook the rest. Serve with the raita.
