timeless,

Yeah, I just made some more too!!  This time with potato and onion in the middle.  I made it thinner (with a tad more water) and it was much better.  Quite filling too.  now i'm off to make some of CA's Onion Bhajis!!!

natterjack,

Next time I do some I'm going to use the chutney.  Graeat idea.  I also had problems with the lumps so I just used a quick blast with the electric whisk. Boom!

As for the frying I prefer a well oiled wok! :-D

I was playing around with these again this morning and decided to try a few variations.

The first one I made went a little wrong in the cooking process but nonetheless tasted lovely. I added finely sliced garlic, finely sliced fresh red medium chili and chopped fresh coriander.



With the remainder of the batter mixture, I added 1 tsp onion powder and 2 tbsp tomato puree, then went on to make my second one, finely sliced red onion, finely sliced fresh red medium chili and chopped fresh coriander.



The final one, I added crumbled feta cheese and chopped fresh coriander.



There seems to be no limits to the variations one could try with these and all three were really nice.

Happy Days

These look very interesting indeed, thanks for posting this DeeDee i'm certainly going to give them a go. I will report back.


No idea about the toppings im going to try yet but am instantly thinking Peshwari, Keema Peas, Sag Aloo, Gobi Aloo, ..... ahh see what you've done!  ;D



Natterjack, a useful tip for making the batter smooth is to add half the water and mix into a smooth paste, then add a little more water until the batter starts to loosen, then whisk in the remainder.

Thanks for that tip Axe. I'll try this more progressive approach next time I make them

976Bar - They look awesome, especially the second one.

Axe - I like the idea of breaking them out with different 'old favourite' fillings like sag aloo, aloo gobi etc ... Like a mini meal!  Great idea.
