Onion Bhaji Burger By Emma Walton-Moore
One of the things I miss most about life before lockdown is street food markets.

But in these tough times we can’t give up. We can recreate some of the best, over the top, decadent, street food at home! Let’s start with the Onion Bhaji Burger. (If you want to be extra decadent you can add a samosa to the bun too - I promise I won’t judge!) Ingredients: For the onion bhajis • 1 large white onion • 3 tsp ground coriander • 1/2 tsp ground cumin • 1 tsp cumin seeds • 1 tsp salt • 1.5 tbsp medium curry powder • 100 grams chickpea flour • 100 to 150 millilitres beer 30
For the raita • 150 grams coconut yogurt • 1/2 a cucumber • Fresh mint • 1 pinch of salt To assemble • 4 burger buns • Aubergine pickle • Baby spinach • 2 beef tomatoes, sliced • Fresh coriander Method: To make the onion bhajis 1. Thinly slice the onion and add to a bowl with the spices and chickpea flour. 2. Toss the onions in the spice and chickpea flour mix to ensure they are well coated. 3.
