Ingredients: 2 onions, thinly sliced; 1 tsp fresh ginger, finely grated; 2 tbsp (30 ml) vegetable oil; ¾ cup (90 g) chickpea flour; ½ tsp baking powder; 1 ½ tsp curry powder; ¼ tsp turmeric; ¼ tsp salt; 6 tbsp (90 ml) water; ¾ cup (180 ml) 0% plain Greek yogurt; 2 Lebanese cucumbers, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced into halfmoons; ¼ cup (10 g) cilantro leaves, finely chopped; 2 tbsp mint leaves, finely chopped, plus more for serving; ½ tsp ground cumin; ¼ cup (45 g) pomegranate seeds

Preparation

Bhajis
- With the rack in the middle position, preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
- In a large non-stick skillet over medium heat, soften the onions and ginger in the oil for 5 minutes. Set aside in a small bowl.
- In a bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, spices and salt. Season with pepper. Add the water and stir until smooth. Add the onion mixture and stir to coat well. Drop the batter onto the baking sheet in 12 piles, using about 2 tbsp of batter for each one. Flatten the piles with the back of a spoon.
- Bake for 25 minutes or until the bhajis are golden, turning them over halfway through cooking. Let cool.
Yogurt
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the yogurt, half of the cucumbers, the herbs and cumin. Season with salt and pepper.
- Drizzle the yogurt sauce over the bhajis. Top with the remaining cucumbers, the pomegranate seeds and mint leaves.
