Ingredients Method

Ingredients

1 cup onions, sliced (or 1/2 c onion +1/2 cup cabbage)
0.5 cup bell pepper, diced
6 tbsp chickpea flour (besan)
3 tbsp rice flour
0.5 tsp red chilli powder
0.25 tsp turmeric powder
0.125 tsp baking soda
Salt, to taste
5 -6 curry leaves, shredded
2 -3 tbsp oil
2 tbsp water

Method

Preheat oven to 425°F/220°C. Line a medium baking tray with foil. Brush or spread a little oil.
In a bowl, mix together all the ingredients adding just a teaspoon of water at a time, until a sticky batter is formed.
Drop spoonfuls of the batter onto the baking tray, spreading it a bit so that there are holes in the batter.
Bake at 425°F/220°C for 20-22 minutes until browned. Remove before the edges begin to burn.
Not crispy enough? Reduce oven temperature to 350°F/180°C and bake for another 10 minutes.
Serve hot with ketchup or chutney. And chai, don't forget the chai!
