# Ingredients:
01 -
2 medium onions (about 300 g), thinly sliced
02 -
1 cup (100 g) of chickpea flour
03 -
1 tbsp of nutritional yeast
04 -
3/4 tsp cumin powder
05 -
3/4 tsp salt
06 -
1/2 tsp turmeric powder
07 -
1/2 cup (120 ml) of water
08 -
1 tsp lime or lemon juice
09 -
1 chopped green chili pepper (spicy)
10 -
1 tbsp freshly chopped parsley or cilantro
11 -
3 tbsp coconut oil for cooking
# Steps:
01 -
Remove the outer layers of the onions and cut them into thin strips with a knife or mandoline. Keep them aside for now.
02 -
In a bowl, mix chickpea flour, nutritional yeast, cumin, salt, turmeric, lime juice, and water. Toss in the green chili and parsley. Blend into a batter with medium thickness; if it's too thick, add a bit more water as needed.
03 -
Add the sliced onions into the batter, spreading it around to make sure every piece is coated well.
04 -
Place a large nonstick skillet on medium heat and add one tablespoon of coconut oil.
05 -
Use tongs or a spoon to place small amounts of the battered onions into the pan (around 4 fritters can cook in one go). Let each side cook for 2-4 minutes until they're crispy and brownish.
06 -
Repeat for the rest of the onions. Serve fresh and warm with your favorite dip, like cucumber raita.
