- 1 tsp baking powder
- handful of chopped coriander
- handful of chopped fresh spinach
Getting it done
-
Step-1
In bowl add the gram flour, chilli flakes, cumin seeds, coriander seeds, dried fenugreek (you need to rub this in the palm of your hands before adding), baking powder, salt. Mix everything together to combine all the dry ingredients.
-
Step-2
Slowly add some water and using a whisk mix together until you have a thick batter. It shouldn’t be really runny. You want it to stick to a spoon.
-
Step-3
Then add the sliced potatoes, sliced onions, chopped coriander and spinach and mix everything together well.
-
Step-4
Heat a wok with with oil.
-
Step-5
Using a spoon drop small amounts of batter to the hot oil and fry on a medium heat until a lovely golden brown colour. Turn occasionally whilst frying.
-
Step-6
Remove from oil and drain on some tissue paper.
Tips
- You can adjust chilli and salt according to your taste
- Check the oil is at the right temperature by dropping a little batter into the oil. The batter should sizzle in the oil.
- Serve with ketchup or mint/coriander chutney

Haven’t shared a post in a while. Miss the old Instagram where we shared photos instead of videos. I hosted a dinner this evening and the theme was Chinese/pan Asian food.
On the menu was chicken gyozas/dumplings with a soy dipping sauce, vegetable spring rolls, egg fried rice, chicken sashlik & prawn crackers.
It was the first time I made chicken gyozas and I’ll definitely be making them again. Let me know if you’d like a tutorial 😁
