Crispy, spicy, spiced Brussels sprouts Indian inspired bhajis dunked in green chutney and served with a cold beer... the perfect festive bite!

Method

Thinly slice your sprouts, onion, and chilli. Add to a bowl with all the dry ingredients, stir to ensure everything is coated in the flour and spices, then add the sparkling water

Preheat a large pan with vegetable oil to 180 C

Carefully dollop a heaped tbsp of the bhaji mixture into the hot oil. Repeat, being sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 3-4 minutes or until the bhajis are golden brown.

Remove from the oil and place on a tray lined with kitchen roll. Finish with a sprinkle of flaky salt.

Serve with green chutney, yoghurt, lemon wedges, and herbs. Enjoy!
