Onion Bhaji

These were made a couple of weeks ago when we had our 'Curry Evening' with friends. I made the samosa's, naan bread & curry. All were absolutely delicious & thoroughly enjoyed by all. Onion Bhaji's bring the most gorgeous flavoursome nibbles to a curry meal,  part of a tasty whole the flavours sooooo complement each other.  I meant to add them to the samosa recipe & curry recipe but totally forgot! So although its a wee bit late, they should never be forgotten when enjoying a curry night :)
