Ingredients

  • - Cofresh Whole Green Chilli 350g
  • - Jalpur Carom Seeds Ajwain
  • 100G Borwicks Bicarbonate Of Soda, 100G
  • 100 G Saras Turmeric Haldi Powder
  • 750 G Top-Op Table Salt Drums
  • 190G Natco Garlic & Ginger Paste, 190G
  • 100G Natco Kashmiri Chilli Powder, 100G
  • - Doves Farm Organic Chickpea Flour

Instructions

  1. 1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) if you plan to bake the bites. This ensures the oven is ready when the bites are shaped.
  2. 2. In a mixing bowl, combine gram flour (besan), garlic & ginger paste, turmeric powder, Kashmiri chilli powder, carom seeds (ajwain), finely chopped whole green chilies, and table salt. Gradually add organic natural yoghurt (or water) while stirring to form a thick, smooth batter.
  3. 3. Add a pinch of food-grade bicarbonate of soda to the batter and mix well to incorporate air for a lighter texture.
  4. 4. Wet your hands slightly to prevent sticking, then shape the batter into small bite-sized balls or discs. Alternatively, use a spoon to scoop and shape the batter.
  5. 5. If shallow frying: Heat a shallow pan with cooking oil over medium heat. Place the shaped bites in the pan and cook, flipping occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
  6. 6. If baking: Place the shaped bites on a greased or parchment-lined baking tray. Bake for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and cooked through.
  7. 7. Serve the mini besan bites hot with green chutney, tamarind chutney, or ketchup as a dipping sauce.
