I know this recipe was posted some time ago but I had never tried it. I had some friends round last night for a meal & I made these about two hours before & reheated in the oven for 15 mins.@ 180 deegres. This resulted in a nice crispy bhaji indeed.
I doubled the recipe ingredients making 24. Added no water & left mix for one hour. Perfect consistency for dropping into hot oil (170 degrees) for exactly four minutes.
I have got to say along with my guests that these are without doubt the best we have ever eaten. Served with the Dipuraja's mint sauce (

The main was Secret Santa's Chicken Sagg recipe (
https://curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=3600.0). This was my first attempt at this particular curry. My friends are regular visitors & really enjoy a curry night as they find my offerings on par or better than our local curry houses. I marinated the chicken chunks for 24 hours in a tandoori mix from Kris Dhillons 'Curry Secret'. This always goes down well. Skewered them & placed in the oven on max for 15 minutes. Although not the prettiest looking curry everyone said it rated as one of their favourites. I always make the curry at least one day earlier in order for it to mature in flavour. It was served with Kris Dhillons tricoloured 'Pillau Rice' as this is a firm favourite. The only change I make is adding two star anise.
I am just so glad that I found this site as it has provided me with cooking skills that I never thought I had. Previous to finding this site my attempts at curry were not great but the discovery of 'Curry gravy' changed all that.
A big thanks for all you guy's out there sharing this fantastic resource with everyone.
