Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 Large onions
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.25 cup Coconut flour
- 1 tbsp Psyllium husk
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Chili powder
- 0.25 tsp Turmeric powder
- 0.5 tsp Cumin seeds
- 0.5 cup Water
- 0.5 cup Coconut oil or avocado oil
- 2 tbsp Fresh cilantro, chopped
Instructions
Peel the onions and slice them into uniform rings about 1/4 inch thick.
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk, salt, chili powder, turmeric powder, and cumin seeds.
Gradually add water to the dry mixture, stirring constantly until a smooth, thick batter forms. It should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
Fold in the chopped cilantro to the batter.
Dip each onion ring into the batter, ensuring it is thoroughly coated.
Heat coconut oil or avocado oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, carefully place the battered onion rings into the oil, a few at a time, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
Fry each side for 2-3 minutes or until the onion baji turns golden brown and crispy. Adjust the heat as needed to prevent burning.
Use a slotted spoon to remove the bajjis from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Serve hot with your favorite keto-friendly dipping sauce.
