Onion Bhaji low carb:
You need:
200g ground almonds
4 eggs, separated
100ml double cream
3 medium onions, cut in half and very finely sliced
1tsp salt
2 green chillis finely chopped (seeds removed if you prefer)
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp cumin seeds
1/2 tsp turmeric
Roast the cumin seeds in a dry, medium hot pan until they start to smell fragrant. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
Mix together the ground almonds, cumin seeds, turmeric, salt, baking powder and chopped chillis.
Beat in the egg yolks and cream.
Whisk the egg whites to soft peaks and fold into the almond mixture.
Separate the onion slices and gently fold into the almond batter a third at a time until all the onion is incorporated.
Cover the bottom of a frying pan with groundnut oil to about half a centimetre depth and put over a low to medium heat.
Using a dessertspoon, fry spoonfuls of batter on both sides until deep brown and crisp.
Serve hot and sizzling straight from the pan sprinkled with chopped fresh coriander and chopped fresh mint.
