if you like green onions and are looking for a variation, must try this one. at our place green onion is a regular vegetable and i was bored with the regular potato-green onion bhaji. yesterday i was surfing on the net and found this recipe, of course i made some changes to it. tried this morning and it came out really well. sorry i could not take the picture :-( it was breakfast time and we were all in a hurry, it was finished before i thought of my camera.
ingredients:
1 bunch of fresh spring onions. wash well and chop into 1 cm bits. mustard oil/vegetable oil 1 tbsp, methi / fenugreek seeds, 1 green chillie whole, 2 pinches hing / asafetoeda, 3 tbsp. besan atta / bengal gram flour, salt, turmeric powder/haldi 1/4 tsp, marble size piece of gur/ jaggery or 1 tsp sugar
heat the oil in a kadhai. add the methi seeds and green chillie and saute for a few seconds till the seeds splutter. add the spring onions, turmeric powder, the salt and gur and stir well before covering tightly and cooking on a low fire till done. now add the besan sprinkling it over the greens a spoon at a time taking care to see that they do not form lumps . Stir well and add more besan till the greens are lightly coated with the gram flour. cover and cook till the gram flour smells done, not raw. this takes about 4-5 minutes when stirred well from time to time. do not let it stick to the pan. serve hot with chapathi or rice. it tastes very nice.
