During Ramadan, my feed was being swamped with images of bhajias, especially the sweetcorn variety. My family and I were trying to eat less fried food and savories so I resisted as long as I could but the temptation was just too strong. You can use this recipe for fritters – see below for variation.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Sweetcorn Bhajias<\/p>\n

Ingredients:<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
• 1 tin cream style sweetcorn (you can use kernel corn)<\/li>\n
• 1 egg<\/li>\n
• 1 cup flour<\/li>\n
• 1\/4 onion chopped or 2 spring onions slices<\/li>\n
• 1 whole green chili or chili powder<\/li>\n
• salt to taste<\/li>\n
• 1 heaped tsp baking powder<\/li>\n
• small handful coriander, chopped<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  Method:<\/span><\/p>\n

  \n
  1. In a bowl add the wet ingredients first (except the milk), then the flour. Mix well but do not over mix.<\/li>\n
  2. Once the mixture is mostly combined add a few splashes of milk, you want to have a thick batter consistency.<\/li>\n
  3. For bhajias drop spoonfuls of mixture into hot oil. Fry until golden brown, drain on a paper towel and serve immediately.<\/li>\n
  4. For fritters, put oil into a frying pan – I prefer to use less oil as they absorb a lot during cooking. drop spoonfuls of mixture into the pan but they should spread out. once you can see the edges have started to cook , turn over with a spatula. it should have brown edges and a light brown color (similar to a flapjack).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

     Tips:<\/p>\n

     These do not contain chana flour (pea flour) like regular bhajias do. Therefore they are only crispy when they are fried and eaten immediately.<\/p>\n
