These Chinese Chive Pies or Pockets 韭菜盒子 have a very crispy exterior but really chewy dough inside. It's filled with a mix of chives (of course), veggies, and vermicelli noodles! They're wrapped in homemade wrappers and I really think freshly made dough makes a BIG DIFFERENCE. Freshly made wrappers from homemade dough turn out so much chewier, they also don't easily break apart when you fill them with your choice of veggies and noodles.
A classic Indian snack, Onion Bhaji are absolutely delicious and completely addictive little deep-fried fritters made with a fragrant combination of chopped red and yellow onions and a selection of aromatic spices and fresh herbs bound together with a thick gooey batter of water, chickpea flour and rice flour. I also like to throw in a handful of kari leaves and a chopped seeded hot green chili for extra flavour. Shaped into loose dumplings or patties, the bhaji are flash fried in a deep saucepan of hot vegetable oil until they're crispy and golden brown all over. Served with a bowl of Cucumber Mint Raita, or your favourite chutney, these delectable little darlings can be enjoyed as an appetizer with cocktails, or as a starter before an Indian inspired meal. Onion Bhaji with Cucumber Mint Raita Makes 10-12 appetizers 1 medium yellow onion 1 medium red onion 1 clove of garlic, minced 1 2-inch piece of ginger, finely chopped 1/2 tsp turmeric 1/2 tsp garam masala 1 tbsp Tikka Masala paste 1 tsp ground cumin 3 tbsp cilantro, finely chopped 1/2 lemon, juiced kosher salt, to taste 1 green chilli, finely chopped and de-seeded - optional 10-12 kari leaves, also known as curry leaves - optional 6 oz besan flour, also known as chickpea flour 2 oz rice flour - makes the fritters extra crispy! 1/4 cup water, or as required Vegetable oil for frying Cucumber Mint Raita: 1 cup natural or Greek yoghurt 1/2 English cucumber, grated 1 bunch mint leaves, minced 1/4 tsp salt 1 lemon, zested 1 green chilli, de-seeded and finely chopped - optional For the raita, wrap the grated cucumber in a tea towel and squeeze out as much excess water as you can. Mix together with all of the other ingredients in a small bowl and chill until needed. Cut the onions in half and finely slice into half-moon shapes, separating each individual slice. Place in a large mixing bowl, and add the garlic, ginger, spices, lemon juice, cilantro (plus the green chilli and kari leaves if using) and salt to taste, and mix gently until combined. Add the chick pea and rice flour and water, a little at a time, until all the onions are coated well. The mixture should not be a batter but thick enough to hold it's shape and hold together well — like a thick gooey paste. Heat the vegetable oil in a large heavy bottomed pot over medium, or use a deep fat fryer. Once the oil reaches 350°F, or a cube of white bread browns after 40 seconds, it's ready to use. You can also check the temperature by dropping in a small spoonful of the mixture - it should sizzle and float. Taste the bhaji and adjust the seasoning if required. With moistened hands, make a loose dumpling or patty with the onion bhaji mixture and gently drop into the hot oil, about 5 at a time. Stir gently and fry until evenly golden brown all over. Remove the bhaji using a slotted spoon once they're done, and drain on paper towel. Repeat the process in small batches until all the mixture is used up. Serve immediately or allow to cool to room temperature if you prefer, and accompany the bhaji with cucumber mint raita or coriander mint chutney.
Baked Multigrain Italian Flavoured Mathri is a crunchy and savory snack that is traditionally eaten in Rajasthan with spicy pickles. This recipe of the baked mathri's is a healthy twist of the traditional version that uses multi-grain flour. The recipe also uses the baking technique rather than deep-frying it.

These crisp and golden brown Onion & Spinach Pakoras are a delicious savoury start to any Indian-themed dinner party. They look fabulous and taste even better. A very popular Indian appetizer, especially in the North, Pakoras are often bought from street vendors who serve them steaming hot wrapped in a newpaper cone. Crisp and golden brown on the outside with a soft fragrant interior of finely chopped spinach, onions, fresh grated ginger, green chillies and an intoxicating combination of aromatic spices, the pakoras are blended together in a fine chickpea flour batter and flash fried at the last minute for an easy and outrageously delicious appetizer fit for a Maharajah. Onion & Spinach Pakoras Makes 12-16 pakoras 1 cup fresh spinach 1 cup chickpea flour 1 medium size onion, finely chopped 1-inch ginger, finely grated 1 green chili, seeded and finely chopped 1 tsp ground fennel seed 1/4 tsp red chili powder 1 tsp turmeric 1 tsp ground coriander 1 tsp cumin a pinch of asafoetida 2 tbsp sesame seeds 1/4 tsp baking powder 1/2 cup ice cold water, and more if necessary salt to taste oil for deep frying Remove the stems from the spinach. Wash, dry and finely chop. Add all the onion, ginger, green chili and all of the spices to the flour and mix well. Add 1/2 cup of ice cold water to make a fluffy smooth batter. Sprinkle the baking powder over this paste and mix lightly. Set aside for 15- 20 minutes. Heat oil for deep frying, until a drop of pakora mixture instantly floats to the top. Don’t let the oil smoke. Drop teaspoon-sized amounts of pakora mix into the oil until the surface is covered. Using a teaspoon gives a dumpling shape to the pakora, whereas dropping the dough from your fingers gives a more delicate, interesting shape. Stir and turn the pakora until they are lightly golden brown on all sides, about 4-5 minutes. Drain on paper towels and serve warm.
