Carrot Bajji

This is purely an experiment from my side. I tried it out with the aim of making my little kiddo eat a few carrots. It is not as tasty as an aloo bajji or mirchi bajji, but it is okay to have as a once in a while tea time snack.

Ingredients

2 medium size Carrots
1-1/2 cups besan
1 tbsp rice flour
1/6 tsp baking soda
1/6 tsp asafoetida
1/2 tsp red chilli powder
1/4 tsp Cumin powder
1/4 tsp Turmeric powder
Water for making batter
Salt to taste

Instructions

Slice the carrots into thin round slices. Put them in water, till the time you prepare the batter. Take a big bowl and mix in besan, rice flour, baking soda, asafoetida, Cumin powder, Turmeric powder, salt and red chilli powder. Gradually add water to make a medium consistency batter. Put few carrot slices in prepared batter and coat them very well from all the sides.

Heat good amount of oil in a frying pan. Carefully drop the coated carrot slices into hot oil and fry on a medium flame by flipping over, till the cartot bajjis turns golden from both sides.

Drain on kitchen paper towels and serve it with chutney.
