Evening snack- Bajji and Garama garam chai(Tea)

Evening snack

Summer evenings, cool breeze and bright sunlight. How about a yummy snack for the beautiful evening?

Bajji and garama garam chai(Tea)

Bajji










Ingredients

Raw banana - 1
Garam flour(Besan) - 1 cup
salt as required
red chilly powder - 1/2 tsp
hing powder - 1/4 tsp
garam masala - 1/4 tsp
chopped coriander leaves - 2 tsp

Sunflower oil - for frying

Method of Preparation

Wash, trim and peel raw banana, slice into very thin pieces. In another bowl add besan, salt, hing powder, red chilly, garam masala and chopped coriander leaves. Add water and make a thick paste. 
In a bottom thick kadai pour sunflower oil allow it to heat, Now carefully take each raw banana piece and dip in batter and put in the hot oil. Allow it to turn into golden brown colour. Use a perforated ladle and remove from the kadai. Use a paper napkin in the plate you remove the bajji. It will absorb the excess oil from bajji. Enjoy your bajji with tomato ketchup or coriander chutney.

Variation : You can use potato, brinjal or onion instead of raw banana.


Chai (Tea) (Kadak chai)

Water - 2 glass
Boiled milk - 1/2 cup
sugar - 2  tsp
Tea powder - 2 1/2 tsp (I have dried ginger, crushed it and added that to tea powder)

Method of preparation

Pour 1 glass of water into a tea sauce pan allow it to boil.  Add milk, tea powder and sugar. Reduce the flame and close the tea sauce pan for a while. Reduce the flame into minimum. Allow the tea leaves to cook well in milk and water. Off the stove. Use a strainer and strain your chai into cups. Serves two.
