Indian Hushpuppies
Onions fried in a batter of chickpea flour.
Ingredients
- 3 Green onions Chopped into 1-inch pieces
- 1 handful Coriander leaf rough chopped
- 1/2 White onion Cut into slivers, top to bottom
- 1 tsp Ground coriander
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1/2 cup Chickpea flour
- 1/4 cup Water you may need a bit more
- 3 cup Cooking oil
Instructions
- Combine both types of onions, coriander leaf, coriander, and salt
- Sprinkle with the chickpea flour
- Add water to make a thick paste. You should be able to make a loose ball with the mixture.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. The mixture will hydrate and become stickier.
- Fry in hot oil until browned.
Notes
Don't worry too much about the consistency, even a very loose mixture will fry up into little cakes. You can do this with just about any vegetable or herb mixture but onion is my favorite.
I use cold-pressed organic sesame oil to fry in. Sometimes I add a little ghee to the oil.
I serve this with a yogurt sauce (like yogurt, rooster sauce, garlic, lemon, etc.).
