Ingredients
- 1 2 cups olive oil for frying
- 1 medium – 2 1/2" diameter white onion
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 small raw egg
- 1 teaspoon cumin, ground
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 2 ounce food cupboard home baking almonds ground by sainsbury's
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon turmeric, ground
- ¼ teaspoon salt, sea salt
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Add the ground almonds, baking soda, turmeric, cumin, coriander, salt, pepper and lemon juice to a food processor. Pulse to combine.
- Add the egg and blend to a smooth thick paste. Transfer to a mixing bowl.
- Finely slice the onion and add to the bowl with the batter. Stir well, so that the onion and batter are combined.
- Heat the oil in a small saucepan over a high heat. Once hot, scoop a tablespoon of the onion and batter mixture at a time and very carefully spoon into the pan. You should be able to fry 3 bhajis at a time. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden and crisp, then repeat with the remaining batter. Carefully transfer the cooked bhajis to a sheet of kitchen paper to soak up the excess oil.
