Roadside Bhaji by Tuk Tuk Edinburgh 

Tuk Tuk was established in 2012 with great success in Edinburgh and is now opening its second site in Glasgow. You can’t go wrong with our Roadside Bhaji, our take on a delicious deep-fried street snack, that originates from India. They are perfect for wintery cold days teamed up with a cup of hot spicy chai. Bhajis are usually complemented with mango chutney or raita.

You can sample it as part of our £12 tiffin lunch deal, with a choice of two curries and naan or rice between 12pm-4pm. 

Our day menu pays tribute to the roadside eateries and street hawkers of India with flavours that are reminiscent of travelling adventures and journeys experienced through taste. Tuk Tuk is all about sharing good food and the experience of trying lots of different dishes to excite your palate! 

Ingredients 
2 eggs
2 large onions, sliced
3 spring onions, sliced 
70g Kale, finely chopped
120g plain flour
1 tsp. ground coriander
1 tsp. hot chilli powder
1 tsp. cumin seeds
3 tbsp. vegetable oil, extra oil required for deep fat frying
Raita or Mango Chutney to serve

Method
1 Beat the eggs in a bowl.
2 Add the sliced onions and kale and mix well together.
3 Add the flour, ground coriander, hot chilli powder and cumin seeds and stir well to the mixture.
4 Heat the oil in a deep-sided frying pan over a medium heat. When hot add a large spoonful of the bhaji mixture and fry for 30-45 seconds, until golden-brown.
5 Turn the bhaji over and fry for a further 30 seconds, until crisp and golden-brown all over. Remove and drain on greaseproof paper. 
6 Repeat with the remaining bhaji mixture, replenishing the oil in the pan if it runs low and allowing it to heat up again after a new addition.
7 Serve up with raita or mango chutney
