Capsicum Bajji

Ingredients:

• Capsicum                                : One and a half cups 

• Bajji flour                               : 1 cup

• Oil for frying

• Water as required

Method:

• Wash and cut the capsicum into long vertical strips.

• Mix required amount of water with the bajji flour to make a semi thick batter.  If you want more spicy add 1/2 teaspoon of chilli pdr and a little hing powder to this,  mix well.

• Heat oil in a kadai and dip  each capsicum piece into the batter and slowly drop it in  hot oil.  Fry  4 to 5 pieces of capsicum in each batch.  

•  Fry the bajji till golden brown and crispy. Remove the fried bajji from oil into a paper towel  to drain excess oil. Crispy fried capsicum bajji is ready to serve!

• Instead of bajji flour,  you can use gram flour mixed with chilli pdr, salt and hing powder. Add a pinch  of soda bicarb  also to this and mix it with water to make the batter.
