Thinly Sliced Crispy Potato Bhajia Recipe at Sharmilee Sweetmart, Cafe & Indian Restaurant Leicester

✓ CRISPY BHAJIA RECIPE INGREDIENTS REQUIRED: Thinly Sliced Potato (Bateta) with skin left on Finely blended Green Chillies Paste Roughly chopped Green Coriander (Lila Dhana) Carom Seeds (Ajwain) Turmeric (Haldi) Chickpea Flour (Besan / Gram flour) Bicarbonate of Soda Powder Salt (Namak) Water (Pani) Oil for frying (Tel) This is a special treat because i get to watch one of my favourite vegan starter items being made. In this video the Lady Chef shows us how she makes Sharmilee restaurant's version of Crispy Bhajia. The Bhajias are fried twice (first half fried & then full fried) which gives a crisper texture to the Bhajias. These Potato Bhajias are similar to the popular Maru Bhajia of Kenya in East Africa.

This is my 6th video at Sharmilee Sweetmart, in the 5 previous videos I recorded some sweet and savoury vegetarian cooking action + a taste test of their massive buffet for all you foodie and kitchen action fans.

As you probably know by now, we absolutely love Desi places like this, a place serving delicious restaurant quality, home cooked food; but at very affordable street food prices!!! There are a many other Desi Indian vegetarian "Street Eat" items on the menu which we didn't get to eat this time around, so we can't wait to pay a return visit wink, wink ;-) It's a place which serves food that is blessed by hand and human touch and further energised and charged by positive thoughts. A special thank you to Sudir Gosai, Ashish Bhai and all of the Sharmilee Team who welcomed us & graciously allowed me a privileged glimpse into their kitchen and shop to do the videoing.

The restaurants here are very homely and welcoming and it does not feel like you are eating in an unfamiliar cafe or restaurant. (20/08/19)
