Makes 12 onion bhajis

Ingredients:
4 onions
1 peeled potato
2 green chillies
3/4 tbsp salt
1 tbsp mixed curry powder
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp mixed cumin and coriander powder
1 tsp panch phoron
Pinch of dried methi leaves
Handful of fresh coriander leaves (extra for garnishing)
3 eggs
1.5 to 2 cups of gram flour

Method:
1) Cut the onions into thin slices and place into a mixing bowl
2) Cut the potato into thin strips and place into a mixing bowl
3) Finely cut the green chillies into smaller pieces and add to the mixing bowl
4) Add the salt, mixed curry powder, turmeric, mixed cumin and coriander powder, panch phoron, methi leaves and coriander leaves into the mixing bowl
5) Mix the ingredients together and ensure that all the onion and potato are covered in spices
6) Add the 3 eggs to the mixture and mix again, making sure all the onion and potato are covered in egg
7) Add the gram flour and mix. Make sure the mixture is not too wet. If it is then add some more flour. Make sure it is not too dry either. You want to be able to squeeze a handful of onions together and they should hold their shape for a few seconds but not dripping. That is the ideal consistency
8) Wet your hands with water so that the onion mixture does not stick to your hands. Then squeeze a handful of the mixture in your hands and drop in a medium high temperature frying pan. Make sure the batter starts bubbling as soon as it is in the oil
9) Stir the onion bhajis around and flip frequently
10) Once they are golden brown (about 5 minutes) remove from the oil
11) Garnish with coriander and serve with some mint sauce
