Milagai Bajji

            Milagai Bajji ! What else can be better with a cup of tea or coffee and Milagai Bajji to rejuvenate us on a cold or rainy day !My choice is always to prepare the batter at home than to go in for ready made mix. The batter is nothing but to mix all the ingredients.

Milagai Bajji

To make 12 Bajjis
Ingredients :

Bajji Milagai  6
Besan flour / Kadalai mavu    1 cup
Rice flour    1 tbsp.
Chilly powder   1/2 to 1 tsp.
Cooking Soda   1/4 tsp.
Turmeric Powder, Salt
Oil for deep frying

Method :

1. Mix all dry ingredients well. Add water and make a batter like Idli batter.Cut the
    Milagais into 2 pieces lengthwise.Then only the batter sticks. There are 12 pieces.

2.Heat the oil and add 2 tsp. of hot oil to the batter and mix well. This gives crispy
   Bajjis.

3. Dip  Milagai pieces in the batter. Take care that they are coated well with the batter.

4. Drop them one by one in the oil. Do not crowd.Four of five can be deep fried even in a
    medium sized Kadai.Drop the coated Bajjis gently that both the sides are inside the oil 

5.When on side is cooked, gently turn one by one to the other side. Do not insert the
   laddle till the batter is cooked. Otherwise the wet batter sticks to the sides of the
   laddle.

6. Remove from oil once the bubbles are gone.The hot and tasty Bajjis are ready.
