• 3/4 cups of Chickpea Flour (Besan)
• 1/2 cup of Plain Flour
• 1 1/2 tsp of Soda Bicarbonate
• 4 large Onions (halved & thinly sliced)
• 4 cloves of Garlic (Lasan) (chopped)
• 1 Egg (lightly beaten)
• 1 tsp of Red Chilli Powder (or to taste)
• 1 1/4 cup of Water
• Oil (for shallow frying)

In a bowl, sift the chickpea flour, plain flour, soda bicarbonate and red chilli powder.

Make a well in the center, and add the combined egg and water and stir to make a smooth creamy batter, by adding a little more water if necessary.

Add the onions and garlic and mix well.

Heat the oil, about 1 cm deep, in a wide flat frying pan.

Drop in tablespoons of the mixture at a time and press into patties.

Fry the bhajis on both sides until golden brown and cooked thoroughly.

Drain on paper towels to absorb any extra oil.
