Bajji! (Batter-dipped fried vegetables) | Rasaala

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup chickpea flour (aka besan, kadalai maavu)
• 1/2 cup rice flour
• 1 tbsp Salt
• 1/2 tsp Hing/asafoetida
• 1 tsp chili powder
• a pinch Turmeric powder
• water to make a medium thick batter
• 2-3 cups assorted vegetables (potatoes, onions, ridge gourd, cauliflower, broccoli, peppers)
• 2 cups oil to fry (approximate; I use avocado oil to deep fry as it has a high smoke point; next best is peanut oil)
