Step by Step Instructions
Step 1
Mix the gram flour, jeera powder, asafoetida powder, chilly powder, salt and turmeric powder in a pan. Add water and mix to fine paste.
Step 2
Take the onion. Keeping the root-side intact, cut the onion from the bottom, so it resembles a flower.
Step 3
Heat oil in a pan.
Step 4
Dip the onion in the gram flour paste, till it’s completely coated. Once the oil is hot enough, gently add the onion to fry. Fry it till the onion becomes golden brown.
