What You’ll Need (Ingredient Highlights)

Lime juice – A touch of tang

How to Make Crispy Onion Bhaji Fritters

Step 1: Slice the Onions
Peel and thinly slice the onions using a knife or mandoline. Set aside.

Step 2: Make the Batter
In a large bowl, whisk together chickpea flour, nutritional yeast (if using), cumin, turmeric, and salt.

Add water and lime juice and stir to form a thick batter.

Step 3: Mix in the Onions and Herbs
Add sliced onions, chopped green chili, and parsley.

Mix well—use your hands for even coating.

Step 4: Heat the Oil
Add 1–2 tablespoons of oil to a skillet over medium heat.

Once hot, drop spoonfuls of the mixture into the pan.

Step 5: Fry Until Golden
Fry each side for 2–4 minutes until crispy and golden brown.

Don’t overcrowd the pan. Drain on paper towels.

Step 6: Serve Hot
Enjoy immediately with your favorite chutney or dipping sauce.

What to Serve It With

Mint chutney or tamarind sauce

As a side to dal, curry, or biryani

Paired with masala chai for a tea-time snack

Variations / Substitutions

Swap parsley with cilantro

Add grated carrot or cabbage to the mix

Use lemon juice instead of lime

Adjust spice level with more or less chili

Storage & Leftovers

Best eaten fresh, but can refrigerate up to 2 days

Reheat in the oven or air fryer to restore crispness

Not recommended for freezing due to onion moisture
