"Piaji" that is what we call it in local language. It's a perfect evening snack to go with a glass of Nimbu Chai. My sister always demands whenever she is at Mom's place. After marriage she became an expert cook too 🙂 These fritters were must when friends at home on weekend evenings... Chai ,Pakoda and a long chitchat !! And there was always a scuffle for the last piece in the plate. Missed those days...

Instructions
 

  • Slice the onions thinly and take them in a mixing bowl. Now add 2 tbsp gram flour ,baking soda, cumin powder, chili powder and mix well. Add flour little by little sprinkling a little water.
  • The consistency should not be liquid at all. The batter should be thick. Heat generous amount of mustard oil in a kadhai to fry fritters.

Notes

If you are using Mustard oil ,then to get rid of pungency heat it twice. First Heat it well and cool .Then heat it again and fry your fritters. you can use sunflower or rice bran oil if you don’t like mustard oil.
