Servings: 24 pieces
Calories: 112kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup All purpose flour / Maida
- ¼ cup Besan / kadalai maavu/ chick pea flour
- ½ cup Yogurt
- 3 tablespoon Coconut pieces I used grated coconut
- 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon Ginger finely grated
- 2 teaspoon Green chilies finely chopped
- ¼ teaspoon Sugar
- ¼ teaspoon Baking Soda
- Salt – to taste
- Oil – to deep fry
Instructions
- Combine the flours, baking soda, sugar and salt in a bowl. Add the yogurt to it and mix well. Now slowly add water to make this into a thick batter. The batter should neither be too thick or too thin. It should be able to fall slowly when dropped from a ladle.
- Cover the batter and leave it to ferment overnight or about 8 hrs. If your yogurt is sour, the fermentation would take lesser time. In my case I had to leave it outside for about 8 hrs.
- Now add the rest of the ingredients and mix well.
- Heat the oil in a pan and when the oil is hot enough add a tablespoon full of batter into the oil.
- Fry these on both sides until golden brown in small batches and drain on a paper towel lined dish.
- Serve the Goli Bajje hot with chutney or ketchup!
