Prep 19 min Cook 19 min Serves 3 Medium

Ingredients

Yogurt2 cups, whisked
Ginger Garlic Paste1 tsp
Saltto taste
Green Chili2
Turmeric Powder1/2 tsp
Vegetable Oilfor deep frying
Curry Leaves2 sprigs
Asafoetidaa pinch
All-Purpose Flour2 cups
Gram Flour1 cup
Ajwain1/2 tsp
Rice Flour2 tbsp

Instructions

1
Mix the all-purpose flour into a seasoned batter with the yogurt, resting it ten minutes so the flours hydrate.
2
Get the oil shimmering but not smoking; steady medium-high is the fritter zone.
3
Fry in batches of six or so, nudging them apart; crowding drops the oil temperature and the crunch.
4
Cook three to four minutes a side until the sizzle quietens, then drain on a wire rack.
5
Eat immediately — a fritter's glory is measured in minutes.

Chef's tip

Resting the finished dish for five minutes off the heat lets the spices settle and deepen.
