Ingredients

- 50 grams rice flour (not ground rice)
- 1 teaspoon dry roasted cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon red chilli powder / cayenne
- Tap water to make the batter

Method
- Whip up the batter ingredients into a thick batter by adding water slowly.
- Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan (use as much as you like, I prefer to shallow fry). Keep the oil on medium heat.
- Dip each slice of vegetable in the batter until coated evenly, dip into hot oil and fry either side until light brown.
- Drain on kitchen paper and serve garnished with chopped mint leaves and sliced green chilli and chaat masala (You can also substitute chaat masala with a sprinkling of red chilli powder and ground cumin)
