To begin, cook the quail eggs until hard-boiled, remove the shells carefully, and keep them aside to cool.- 3
In a mixing bowl, combine gram flour (besan), rice flour, a pinch of baking soda, salt, red chilli powder, turmeric powder, and a little garam masala, mixing all the dry ingredients well to ensure even flavor.- 4
Now add finely chopped green chillies, ginger, onion, and curry leaves to the mixture and give it another good mix to combine all the fresh ingredients.- 5
Gradually add water, a little at a time, and whisk everything into a smooth and slightly thick batter, making sure there are no lumps.- 6
Let the batter rest for about ten minutes so the flavors blend and the texture improves.- 7
Heat oil in a pan for deep frying, then dip each boiled quail egg fully into the batter and gently drop them into the hot oil, frying until they turn golden brown and crispy on the outside.- 8
If you're using regular eggs instead, cut them lengthwise in half, dip each half into the batter, and fry the same way.- 9
Once done, drain the bajjis on paper towels, serve hot, and enjoy this crunchy delight with a cup of chai or your favorite dip. - 2
