Peyaji—simple Bengali onion fritters for rainy evenings—Easy Bengali snack

Peyaji recipe: Deep fried onion fritters—because who doesn't like fried onions? Even within India there are lots of variations of onion pakoras. They all follow a similar set of ingredients, but the beauty lies in the small deviations. The basic Bengali peyaji (also called Peyaju in Bangladesh) is made with just five ingredients—onions, green chillies, besan, salt, and sugar. But the trick to great peyaji, like any fried dish, is in controlling the moisture. The drier the batter, the crispier the peyaji. Substituting part of the gram flour with rice flour and regular flour also helps keep the peyaji crisp longer. So when the clouds rumble, make some peyaji. It is quick, easy and delicious.
