Cabbage Fitters

Ever since I have seen cabbage fitters here I have been making them. 

So what is different today? Well today I have not added soda at all.  

This is an old tip that my hubby’s grandmother, Mai, passed on to me, I added cooked daal instead of soda. The fitters or bhaaji came out crisper and did not absorb oil.

           

Ingredients:

1 cup cabbage

Salt to taste

1 tsp Chilli powder (adjust as per taste)

 ½ tsp haldi powder

½ tsp Coriander powder

½ tsp jeera powder

Besan or chick pea flour

A lemon sized ball of daal

Oil for frying

Method:

1.       Mix the cabbage, salt, chilli powder, turmeric powder, and coriander and jeera powder and let it rest for about ½ an hour. (I let it rest for about 3 hours).

2.       When you want to fry them add the daal, besan a tblspn of hot oil. Mix well.

3.       Adjust the seasoning and then drop the batter in small balls from a tsp in the hot oil carefully.

4.       Fry on low flame both sides till done, drain on absorbent paper.

5.        Serve hot with tomato sauce or as my daughters had with mustard.
