- How to Make a Wholesome, Authentic Vegetable Bhaji With Chef Hussain
An authentic vegetable bhaji, no flour or deep-frying here! If you want to taste original, genuine Indian cuisine this video is for you. What's more, this recipe is vegetarian and vegan-friendly.
🍛 What is a Bhaji?
A bhaji, bajji, bhajiya or bajji is an Indian snack or starter that is similar to a fritter. In the west, you may hear the term pakora being used interchangeably. In Anglo-Indian culture, the onion bhaji is the most well-known and is often served with other Indian snacks and accompaniments like mango chutney. The UK even holds the record for the biggest onion bhaji ever made, coming in at a whopping 102.2 kilograms. Don't worry, Hussein's recipe won't be that big!
🔥 Is a Bhaji Hot?
That's entirely up to you! There are different variations of bhaji that have different heat levels, but we prefer to keep a little milder. Tip: Add some chopped chilli to spice this dish up.
🛒 Ingredients:
-3 tbsp rapeseed oil
-1 medium onion
-1 1/2 vine tomatoes
-500g mixed veg (broccoli, peas, carrots)
-1 tsp salt

-2 pinches of fresh coriander leaves
-1 tsp Jeera powder (roasted cumin powder)
-1/4 tsp Haldi powder (turmeric)
-1/2 tsp Kashmiri chilli powder
-1/4 cup of water

1. Place your pan on the hob and let it heat up.
2. Add 3 tbsp of rapeseed oil to the pan.
3. While the pan heats, finely slice your onion.
4. Add your onion to the pan and push around for 30-60 seconds.
5. Add a tsp of salt to taste.
6. Brown the onions.
7. Add two tsp of garlic and ginger paste and work in.
8. Slice and dice one tomato, then add to the pan.

10. Fry for 30-60 seconds and add a tsp of Kasuri Methi.*
11. Add 1/2 tsp of coriander powder, a tsp of Jeera powder, 1/4 tsp of Haldi powder and 1/2 tsp of Kashmiri chilli powder.
12. Mix all the spices into the veg.
13. Add the 1/4 cup of water to the pan and fry for one minute.

This the most honest homecooking on the whole of youtube congratulations chef staying true to your heritage of best cooking methods.
Huge fan. Your recipes are the only ones I've tried that are really delicious. Any plans for a vindaloo or rogan josh recipe???
Hi agree this is the most honest home cooking on RUclips without a doubt, very professionally done and very hygienic with fresh ingredients, keep them recipes coming. Many thanks.
Chef Hussain's recipes are superb. It's great that he takes the time to share these even although he is running a restaurant whch sells the same food.
Just finished eating this dish. I was able to find all the ingredients in my city’s Indian grocery store (in the U.S.). The flavors were amazing. Thank you very much for posting this recipe for those who can’t readily dine at your restaurant. I look forward to making the other recipes you have posted and those you hopefully will in the future.
Love your videos. Can’t wait to try some dishes this weekend👍Thanks
That looks great. If the recipes keep coming, this channel will be epic. Thanks.
Thank you Hussein for these incredible recipes. I have been steadily working through them over the past month. I hope your restaurant is coping ok with lockdown.
many thanks Hussain, I love you cooking, such great dishes with nice simple demonstrations of how to cook them
Another great video, please do more, they are so easy to follow, thank you.
So inspiring, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge! ☀️
Many thanks for posting these videos love the cooking and recipes cheers mate.
Quick and easy, and I have everything on hand. Looks great! Thank you very much.
Frying sounds are great through my AKG headphones - I can almost taste it.
That looks good! I will try this for sure.
Top work Chef - would love to see you cook a mixed veg 'Asian style Staff curry' one of these days!

Thumbs up you're not using uneccessary gravies like in most BIR recipes. Your dishes are inspirational
Thank you very much. I’ll try this soon.

Jazak Allah kair Akhi :)
Just got to say thank you for your series on good honest Indian cooking, Just beautiful
thank you for sharing your videos chef,its such a pleasure to watch them
your recipes are amazing and you make them so easy for us to follow,its great that someone like you is now sharing your secrets of curry cooking
simple and delicious recipe and video, thank you chef hussain.
more vegetarian dishes/videos please!
Seriously. This is a perfect recipe at all levels. Dual use of tomatoes and dried fenugreek leaves is a highly underrated / unknown technique.
Just found your channel.
Love it.
Thank you.
Keep up the good work
Lovely watch I’ll try this. Could almost smell the dish.🏴👍
Very nice!
Best recipes on RUclips no doubt about it
Very simple and easy good presentation

Thank you very much
Brilliant! Authentic Asian marvellous!
Looks lovely will try this too. Hope you can do one for the Vegi curry you do on special nights it#s just amazing...
excellent,!

Anealuk
Made your Chicken Balti for the first time and the family thought it was fantastic! Chef Hussain your videos are really comprehensive and the family can’t wait to try your other recipes. Thank you.
This is a great recipe! Perfect companion to chef Hussain's chicken and spinach claypot curry.
Made it again tonight. Absolutely delicious 😋 Thanks again to Chef Hussain and the Balti house Rishton !!
Brilliant
I have been collecting and trying BIR recipes for a while now, and really wanted a good restaurant style Dry Veg; this one hits the spot and is now cooked at least once a week; well done and thanks for sharing.
A revelation! This is the first time I've seen a Bhaji explained as its true meaning 'a dry fried' dish. Little moisture like a bhoona. Got to try this one as it will work with so many different vegetables. I was intrigued by the careful use of small amounts of dried fenugreek leaf. It's a pungent spice and needs careful use. Now I know how to apply it properly.. Great video thank you.
Awesome side dish, I will add this to my vegetarian night as we do try to have one or two days a week meat free.
Thank you so much
Looks nice mate 👍
Very nice.
Chef Ali we need some more recipes ... Im yet to try this one but it wont be long ..I would love to see you wave your magic with some lamb dishes
YUM!!
Once you have made the initial outlay of the spices, ingredients from any good Indian/Pakistani shop you can easily make his dishes if you follow his instructions, I haven't eaten a takeaway for years !
Clever man, WHY go restaurant all the time when the ingredients are so easily available from local Asian shops
I made this at the weekend and very much enjoyed as a side dish. The veg took longer to cook as I think I had more veg and cut into larger chunks so had to keep adding a little water until done. A simple and very tasty dish
If i had my way i would have this kind of good all the time.
Thanks chef
Love your videos very good please can you show how to cook rice please thanks again Bob
Great recipe 👍
hate master chef hate cooking but now on a friday thanks to hussain i'm knocking out the best meals ever,for 5 thanks
Another great video
Great
Brilliant, little more to say other than I wish you were closer
Recipe is very nice. Can you pls show us how you cook Karachi gosht and rice. Thanks
Bless you, sir for this! I'll try this one myself. Oh and Al's Kitchen brought me here! :-)
English Bob fuck als kitchen
Als kitchen is the best!
Love your desi style approach, cooked the madras the other night cheated a little by frying off very finely chopped onion before adding spices ginger/ garlic and purée once cooked off I blended the masala then cooked the chicken in the sauce as it reduced finally added fresh coriander, best curry I’ve tasted thank you so much, now Bombay potato and rogan josh next please oh and mushroom bhaji please 🙏🏽
HELLO chef Hussain thank you very much for your inspirational videos. please could you tell me the ratio when you make ginger and garlic paste?
thanks in advance.
This is the real deal. 100% home cooking at it's best. Non of this yogurt crap just pure spices and flavors, no need to kill with chilies like most people think! Well done chef, keep doing your thing! Simple is best. Seen all your vid's and honestly very similar to how my nan used to make it! Massive salute to you
love this guy
brian wimborne dorset
What set of knives you're using, mate? Thanks x
I love your recipes, are you doing anymore? please
Can you make more videos Thanks :)
Can you recommend a good outlet for Kashmiri powder please
Sir receipe videos please upload videos......
Yours looks tastier than the ones sold up in Indian restaurant/takeaway here in Durham. Its sold as a side dish also called mixed vegetable bhaji but seems have mainly cabbage/onions and potato chunks (can't recall peas/cauliflour in it) served in a mild sweetish sauce, never been able to find recipe or reproduce it :(
Please do chole or Chana masala. Thank u
Finally a real bhaji and it's not a deep fried ball of vegetables!
The vegetables that you put into the browned onions looked to be cooked already, were they boiled and then heated with the onions and spices? Or were they raw when they went in please?
My wife really enjoyed the balti, I look forward to cooking it again. I am cooking the madras later today and I want some veg to go with it, so here I am again watching your videos. Thank you for sharing your techniques.
Do a book!
Chef's sometimes use metal utensils with non-stick, should they, well no. What I'm impressed with is the bread knife that's used as a chef's knife! - Sharpening the spine of that serrated knife! - VERY IMPRESSIVE!
Amazing dish. Where are exactly are you based? And for your next cooking video can you do a Nihari?
We're based in Blackburn, Lancashire! I've just uploaded a Malai Chicken Masala video. Will add the Nihari to the list. Thank you for your feedback
Your recipes Hussain look a lot easier than all those others using base gravy which I’ve been trying for ages and never seem to capture the restaurant flavour......I’m going to give them a try.
Thanks.
I cringed whenever he bashed and scrapped that metal spoon on than non-stick pan!
Hi love your recipes...plz upload more but I have 1 issue which is the sizzling sound is coming more than your voice. Otherwise brilliant work keep it up👍👍👍
please could you do a lamb curry video.
I want that knife!
Really lovely recipe and great video. I love your magnificent beard. You are a real gentleman.
My husband is vegetarian and I would love to try and replicate this balti recipe, but adding a nice sauce to it, if you can please advise me?
Hi Sue, the stage where I add the meat, you can add frozen mix veg and not too much water though. The dish will turn out perfect.
Salaam. Please use wooden spoons for stirring.
Do you use frozen veggies or fresh
Jenny we always prefer to use fresh ❤️🙏😊
Can we use normal vegetable oil? Please upload videos regularly. It is a very good platform, also please show BBQ dishes
chef hussain, how do you get your beard so straight in the other videos?
LOL!!
great chef please chicken tikka masala
U not use steel in non stick pan☹
You must bang the spoon for extra flavor!
😂
Oh, Bhaji or Balti.. I’m confused.... Or perhaps the real names are different to what I know? Looks nice though Chef ;)
