Besan flour - 3/4 cup
Rice flour - 1/4 cup
Potato -2 medium sized
Ginger garlic paste - 1/2 tsp
Fennel seeds powdered - 1/4 tsp (optional)
Red chilli powder - 1 tsp
Baking soda - 1/4 tsp
Orange food color - a pinch(optional)
Oil - to deep fry
Salt - to taste
Method:
- Rinse and wash potatoes, pat them dry. Peel off the skin, then slice them using a slicer - Dont make the slices very thick else it will not get cooked inside - Set aside. In a mixing bowl add all the ingredients except potato and oil.
- Add water and make it to thick paste first without any lumps. Then add water little by little to form a thick batter(like the dosa batter but not too runny). Heat oil - Dip each potato slice in the batter, turn to coat well on both the sides.
- Carefully transfer it to the preheated oil. Turn over to cook well on both sides till golden brown. Drain in tissue paper.
My Notes:
- Make sure the batter is not too runny else the batter will not coat well on the veggie.
- Adding baking soda gives fluffiness and soft texture to the bajjis but you can very well skip it too.
