  1. 1 For the Onion Bhaji:
  2. 2 Add the Chickpeas Flour, spice powders, salt as needed and onions in a large bowl. Mix them well and set it aside, covered for 30 minutes. Onions often releases water, so add water approximately 1/4 - 1/2 Cup accordingly.
  3. 3 Heat oil for deep frying. Add 1 tablespoon of the mixture to the oil and fry until partially cooked. Flip them over and fry until onion bhajji is crisp and golden.
  4. 4 Drain them to a paper towel. Repeat the process until all the onion bhaji is made.

  6. 6 In a large mixing bowl/ jug add Onken yogurt, chickpeas flour, salt, turmeric powder, chilli powder, cumin powder. Whisk them well until well combined. Add water to the yogurt chickpeas mixture in a slow pace and whisk them until well combined.

  10. 10 Add the chopped red onions, a pinch of salt and saute until translucent.
  11. 11 Add the Kadhi Mixture prepared above and allow the mixture to boil, stirring continuously. This process can take roughly 12 minutes+. Reduce the flame, allowing the kadhi to simmer for another 5 minutes or so.
  12. 12 If you find the kadhi too thick, add more water.
  13. 13 Add the fried onion bhajji to the kadhi and cook for another 2 minutes. Switch off the flame and ladle them to the serving bowl.
  14. 14 Heat Oil/ghee in a small fry pan add mustard seeds and red chillies. Allow the mustard seeds to crackle. Add the curry leaves and turn off the flame.
