BAJJI MIXTURE

                                        

 I made different snack item, but it is very familiar to Andhra people. That is bajji mixture.

This yummy treat is a famous street food in Krishna and Godavari side since a long time.

It is easy to make and tasty too. Along with that it has many benefits to eat it. Generally we are eating raw onion in this, it helps to reduce our fat. Its also a surprisingly quick meal to put together. Basically oily version of this food, has now turned into oil free version to suit perfect healthy food. Original recipe demands chopped mirchi bajji into this. I skipped this with health conscious.
