Syn Free Oven Baked Onion Bhaji, the perfect side for your Indian Fakeaway meal.
An Indian meal isn’t complete without some onion bhaji with a side of mint yoghurt.
Traditionally they are deep fried in oil (usually ghee), but here we have a much healthier version that is baked in the oven.
They are delicious just on their own, but also make a great side dish to any homemade Indian dish. I made two version of these, spicy ones with green chilli for the adults and then without for the kids. It is up to you which ones you prefer.

The 'rate this recipe' wouldn't allow me to give the recipe 5*. These bhajis are fantastic, well worth making. I'm going to make a batch to freeze asap.
These were amazing! Didn't make the sauce. Husband has requested them again, they were THAT good.
Highly recommend these! Made a few substitutions...the sweet potato for carrot and the Ajwain seeds for Nigella seeds! Delicious and so easy to make!
Not much more I can say except for 'YUM'. Thank you for another cracking recipe.
Hi Luv....
I am never sure how many *balls* to make from this recipe....I know it serves 4 so I guess as long as I divide whatever number I make by 4...I should have a serving?
Totally depends on the size you make them. I usually get 3 to 4 per person.
These also work incredibly well with a tin of green lentils in place of the chickpeas, I also don’t use the sweet potato, I don’t feel it needed it! Fabulous recipe, thanks
I’ve made then so many times. Best bhajis ever
Hi. These sound lovely and I would like to try them but how do u measure potato and chick peas in ml? Ml is a liquid measurement surely? Thanks. X
Hi Sue, cup measurements are easy and convenient for quickly measuring out ingredients, but for those that don't have cups, you can just use a measuring jug roughly measuring up to the ml mark as stated in the recipe for those ingredients. 🙂
Can I make the day before and keep them in the fridge then cook just before servings?
yep they are fine to reheat or eat cold 🙂
Just made these. Absolutely delicious and everyone in the family enjoyed them.
Absolutely delicious.
Will make them again.
Really delicious! Thanks so much! Everyone in my family loved these.
Hi, was just wondering if these can be frozen to be reheated at a later date?
yes they sure can 🙂
I love this recipe but would like to know Can this mixture be left in the fridge overnight?
yes it should be perfectly fine 🙂
As I am not allowed to eat chickpeas for medical reasons, is there anything I can substitute the chickpeas with?
I would just omit, they should be okay without.
These bhajis are amazing !! Made them a couple of times now. Freeze & re heat really well. Nicest bhajis I’ve had, hubby thinks so too.
Thank you so much for you recipes x
I made these last night to go with a curry as a special treat. They were great and actually may even taste nicer the next day. The only difference is that I would perhaps add some more onions next time and I only used white onions. Great receipt and great to add to a classic Indian dish to make it feel special.
These were incredible! So delicious, will certainly be making these again!
Delicious! Trying to make healthier snacks so we don't dive for the crisps and chocolate and this is a great recipe! Defo repeating this!
