Low Carb Onion Bhaji
Traditionally these are made with gram flour, but to keep the carb content down I've used a different batter mix. Super easy to make and absolutely delicious. Serve as a starter for 4 or a main for 2.
Instructions
- 1
In a medium bowl place the cream cheese and give it a stir.
- 2
Beat in one egg at a time until fully incorporated.
- 3
Beat in the psyllium husk powder.
- 4
Add all the other batter ingredients and leave to stand for 10 minutes while the psyllium thickens.
- 5
Stir in the finely sliced onion.
- 6
Fill a frying pan about 2cm deep with oil and heat over a medium-high heat.
- 7
Add serving-spoon-sized scoops of the onion and batter mixture to the pan, about 4 at a time. Cook until golden brown on each side, approximately 7 minutes in total.
- 8
Drain on kitchen towel and keep warm until ready to serve with lemon wedges, mint yoghurt, and salad.
Notes
- Use coconut yoghurt instead of cream cheese if dairy free.
- If you only have curry powder in the cupboard, use 1 tbsp in place of the individual spices.
- Great as a starter for 4 or a main for 2.
