Spinach & Onion Bhajis

Ingredients:

1 mug gram flour
1 medium sized potato
1 medium sized onion
½ bunch spinach leaves
Few leaves coriander
¼ teaspoon salt
Chilli powder to taste (we use ¼ teaspoon)
¼ teaspoon cumin powder
¼ teaspoon coriander powder
Vegetable oil


Method:

Add warm water to the gram flour (in a bowl) to make a batter. Keep mixing while pouring the water bit by bit until you get a fluffy batter (don't make the batter too thin).
To the batter add the chilli powder, cumin powder and the coriander powder.
Then slice the potatoes and onions and add these to the batter.
Chop the spinach leaves into strips and add these to the batter.
Then add some chopped coriander to the batter and mix.
Pour the batter, a tablespoon at a time, into a frying pan of hot vegetable oil, (these should solidify into bhajis as soon as they go into the oil).
Fry these bhajis until brown and crisp.
Then eat
