Potato Bajji is a popular South Indian snack renowned for its crispy, golden exterior and tender, flavorful potato filling. This dish is crafted by slicing potatoes into thin rounds, coating them in a spiced chickpea flour batter consisting of besan, chili powder, turmeric, carom seeds, and salt, then deep-frying until irresistibly crunchy. It’s a staple in Indian cuisine, often enjoyed during tea-time or festive celebrations. While Potato Bajji offers a delicious source of energy due to the carbohydrates in potatoes and protein in the chickpea flour, its deep-fried preparation increases fat content, making moderation key. Including spices like turmeric and carom seeds imparts potential anti-inflammatory and digestive benefits. To make a healthier version, it can be air-fried or shallow-fried to reduce oil absorption while preserving its signature flavors.
