Parsnip & Carrot Bhajis
with Lemon Yogurt & Tamarind Green Beans
Bhajis are Indian and Pakistani spiced vegetable fritters, typically deep fried and eaten as a street food. We pan-fry our parsnip and carrot bhajis for a lighter, crispy exterior. To complete the meal, we serve these fritters with tamarind roasted green beans and creamy lemon yogurt.
