Kela Bhajia is a traditional snack, which has been acclaimed as the perfect tea-time accompaniment by several generations of Indians! Much-loved across the nation, this scrumptious snack is made by deep-frying batter-coated banana slices.
Simple ingredients like chilli powder and asafoetida added to the besan batter give these Banana Bhajiyas a lovely flavour that delights your taste buds. Enjoy the bhajiyas hot and crisp, as soon as you drain the excess oil.
Method- Combine the besan, chilli powder, turmeric powder, asafoetida, salt and approx. ½ cup of water in a deep bowl; and mix well.
