From the point of view of a nice hot cup of tea, crunchy fried onions and potatoes are just the right bite interludes, especially during the monsoons.
Ingredients
2-3 onion, sliced round and slightly thick
3 potatoes, sliced round and slightly thick
1 cup gram flour
½ cup rice flour
½ tsp chilli powder
Salt, as required
½ tsp asafoetida
½ tsp baking soda
Preparation
Pass gram flour to a bowl
Add rice flour
Add the chilli powder, salt and asafoetida powder
Mix well to a thick batter. Do not add more water, the batter shouldn't be loose
Add the baking soda at this point and mix well
Heat enough oil to fry in a pan
Take the onion and potato pieces alternatively, smear with the thick batter and deep fry in oil
