No Waste Peel Pakoras

INGREDIENTS

  • 200g gram flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 large white onion, finely sliced into half-moons, approx. 250g
  • Potato peel
  • Carrot peel
  • Sprouts peelings, or any other veg off-cuts e.g. Broccoli stalks grated, cauliflower leaves, leek, red cabbage etc. (you will need about 250g all together)
  • 1 tsp of sea salt
  • 2 tsp of garam masala
  • 1 tsp of turmeric
  • Handful of coriander, chopped
  • 2 tsp of dried fenugreek leaves/curry leaves
  • 1 tsp of cumin seeds
  • 1 tsp fennel seeds (optional)
  • 2 chillies, finely chopped (optional)
  • 1 tbsp ginger, grated (optional)
  • 200ml Water (approx..), to bind the mixture
  • Oil, for shallow frying

METHOD

  1. Combine everything together, except for the water, in a very large bowl.
  2. Add in ¾ of the water, then mix. If it feels too dry add the remaining water, the batter should just coat the vegetables, like thick double cream.
  3. Shallow fry for 4-5 mins until cooked through, serve with LEON Tomango ketchup.

We created this recipe from scratch in our very first restaurant back in 2004. And it’s still our most popular sauce. We use chipotle chillies and a hint of paprika to give the sauce its fruity, spicy warmth.
