Mysore Bajji

A delicious breakfast which we like a lot. I remember my mom making the batter and leaving it overnight. That makes bajjis come out soft and tastier, says mom.


mysore bajji with senagapappu-kobbari chutney

What we need:

maida - 2 cups


sour curd - 1 cup (whip smooth without lumps)

onions - 2 finely chopped

green chillies - 3 finely chopped

jeera - 1 tsp

cooking soda - 1 tsp

salt to taste

oil for deep frying

Preparation

1. Sieve maida.mix with sour curd and leave overnight.

2. In the morning add salt, cooking soda, onions, green chillies, and jeera to form a thick batter without lumps as shown.

3. Heat oil in a pan and drop batter into round balls. Fry till golden brown in color and serve hot with senagapappu-kobbari chutney.

4. These bajjis can also be made instantly if you have left over sour curd at home. Just sieve maida, mix with sour curd, cooking soda, onions, green chillies, jeera and fry them as shown below.

Hi,

did you soak the batter overnight or made it instantly. Do not overheat oil, coz it turns the bajji to brown in color outside but inside still remains uncooked. Hope that helps.

Hi vinay,

Thanks. Adding more of cooking soda also sometimes consumes more oil. Reducing the quantity of soda sometimes helps.

cheers

Malladi,

yeah bajjis would be chewy like gum if no curd is added. Try making the batter with curd. Pre-soaking it overnight is not mandatory but doing so would result in more fluffy bajjis. Alternatively you can try using sour curds and make them instantly too. Hope that helps. Pls feel free to email me. I'd be glad to help you.

hai this is sireesha... i tried it..but it consuming much oil. may i know any other way to do this.. cont we do this without curd..

Sirisha,thanks for dropping by. Adding a little bit extra soda also consumes oil. Bajjis turn out hard if curd is not added. Some of the reasons for consuming oil is batter may not be too thick or adding soda and soaking it overnight also consumes more oil. Hope that helps.

Aishwarya,

Thank you for dropping by my blog. you can replace sour curd with fresh curd too. It tastes as good as sour curd. Trust me :) I've tried many times with fresh curds too. Do let me know how it turned out.

hi aishwarya here..

i tried mysore bujji..it came gud. but i didn't add cooking soda and green chilli as i wont get here..but i had one problem..the batter was stucky..can u help me to avoid this?

Ishu,

Thanks for trying the recipe and good to hear it turned out well. cooking soda makes the bajji more fluffy. Since the batter is made with maida it is naturally sticky. Do not add more soda than required as it absorbs more oil. Hope that helps.
