Spring onion bhaji – Spring onion bhaji recipe with besan- side dish for roti
Spring onion bhaji| spring onion zunka,recipe with step-by-step pictures and video, a simple yet tasty dry curry made using spring onions and gram flour as the main ingredient. When I heard this recipe from a friend, I was so curious to try it out at home. It turned out so well and no one could make out that it is spring onion. Generally, I don’t buy spring onion much, as for indo chinese recipes, we use only a small portion and the rest of them will get wasted. This besan-based Spring onion bhaji can be made using capsicum, and onion too.

thanks looks perfect with this recipe for roti
hi,
I tried this today and the taste was gud, but once i added the besan flour all the spring onions got stick together and became like upuma. can u tell me where i might have gone wrong?
Ramya, ifyou feel the besan is sticky , just saute it first for few minutes till you get a nice aroma. then add the spring onion and saute
I will try this in our bachelor kitchen ..
If the measure was in a cup or weight It would be easier.
Yes i agree, only the spring onion is not given in cup measurement. i will update when i make it next time.
