I jumped out of the bed, whipped up the batter and made these bajjis and hubby was happy eating the hot bajjis with his favourite coconut chutney. But I had to stop my temptation till I clicked the pics then happily started munching them 🙂

  2. Add water and make it to thick paste first without any lumps. Then add water little by little to form a thick batter(like the dosa batter but not too runny). Heat oil – Dip each potato slice in the batter, turn to coat well on both the sides.

My Notes:

  • Make sure the batter is not too runny else the batter will not coat well on the veggie.
  • Adding baking soda gives fluffiness and soft texture to the bajjis but you can very well skip it too.

  40. Hi – I have a question about besan flour. Do you have to keep it in the fridge or will it keep at room temperature? I'm American so I don't know about besan, but I bought a bag of it at the Indian store.

    Thanks!
