Forgive the title, but spelling hindi words in the Roman alphabet leaves a lot of room for variation and I wanted to make it easy to search for. Very easy, made in a jiffy (whatever one of those is)

Ingredients
For the batter
- 2 cups gram flour (ground chick peas)
- 1 tablespoon fenugreek leaves (or coriander)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon chili powder (easier to distribute evenly than chopped chillies)
- 1 teaspoon garam masala (a good teaspoon)
- 1 tablespoon oil
- water (to form a thick, clinging batter)
For the vegetables
- slices onions
- slices potatoes (raw, leave skins on if you like)
- cauliflowers (florets)
- broccoli (florets)
- slices paneer
- slices eggplants
- snow peas
- baby sweetcorn
- any vegetables (whatever you fancy really but nothing too watery like tomato I should imagine)
Method
- Simply mix the batter in a large bowl, throw in the vegetables and stir to give all the pieces of vegetable a good coating.
- Deep fry in batches until golden brown.
- Drain on kitchen paper and serve with ketchup/chutney.... A very nice picnic food by the way.
