What you’ll need:

• 260g gram flour
• ¼ tsp bicarbonate of soda
• 1 1/2 tsp ground cumin
• 1 ½ tsp ground coriander
• ¼ tsp chilli powder
• ½ garlic clove, finely grated
• Salt & black pepper
• 4 onions, roughly chopped
• 300ml warm water
• Vegetable oil, to fry
• 500g Tims Dairy Greek-style Natural yogurt 
• 1 cucumber, coarsely grated and the water wrung out of it using a tea towel

How to do it:

1. Fill a wok/pan a third of the way full and set over a medium heat
2. Combine all the ingredients for the bhajis bar the onions in a large bowl
3. Add the onions to the batter mix and stir. Once the oil is hot, take tablespoonfuls of bhaji mixture and place them in the hot oil
