Pudalangai Bajji/ Snake gourd Bajji

 This Bajji is easy and it is wonderful snack with Tea especially when it is raining.

Little prep of the Bajji flour and store it , so that you don't have to buy it in store. When we make the Bajji we can mix this flour with the chilli powder, turmeric , and  salt ,adjusting how spicy you need .

Bajji Flour

Gram flour/ Besan - 1 cup

Rice flour - 1/2 cup

corn flour- 1 tbsp( optional)

Mix this and store it in air tight container

Now to the recipe

Bajji Flour - 1/2 cup

red chilli powder - 1/2- 1 tsp

turmeric - 1/4 tsp

salt to taste

eno - 1/2 tsp ( optional)

{Adding Eno is optional but I use it as it makes the Bajji little crunchy }

Pudalangai- chop into thin circles( after removing the seeds)

 I cook the pudalangai for a minute with out water. This step is not needed but i do this way.

Mixing the Bajji Mix

In a bowl , take the bajji flour , salt , turmeric, chilli powder and add water little by litte. 

Mix it nicely without lumps. The consistent should be of a pancake dough consistency. When you dip the pudalangai ring , it has to coat it.( it has to be in a onion ring batter consistency)

Add eno and it will become little fluffy.

Now the bajji mix is ready.

Heat a Kadai and add oil for deep frying

When the oil is hot, dip the pudalangai/snake gourd slices one after another in the dough and fry  it in the hot oil. It is just like the onion ring

Strain the oil/when fried to crispy /golden brown . 

Yummy delicious mouth watering Pudalangai bajji is ready

Serve it with Evening Tea or with Tomato Ketchup .
