And not forgetting Onion Bhaji's with your curry dish
Onion Bhaji recipe
The onion bhaji is a spicy Indian snack of which the main ingredient is fried onions. In the UK the onion bhaji has become popular to eat as a snack or as a starter in Indian restaurants. The basic recipe consists of onions being chopped and then made into a sort of batter with chickpea or gram flour, spices, and sometimes with herbs, then fried until golden. They have a mild taste and are not hot.
This recipe for onion bhaji is one of the recipes we have been given permission to reproduce by another of the UK recipe sites, Recipes4us. It is a big site with a wealth of information and recipes. If you would like to have a look at their website click here.
This recipe is Indian and is served as a Hors d'oeuvres (although I like to eat them just as a snack - Hub-UK)

Re: And not forgetting Onion Bhaji's with your curry dish
When I first made Onion Bhaji's I made the mistake of not taking the wire pan out of the fryer! What a mess.
They are nice though.
