Ingredients

• 2 medium Zucchini
• 1 cup Almond flour
• 1 tablespoon Besan (chickpea flour)
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground turmeric
• 1 teaspoon Red chili powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Asafoetida (hing)
• 0.5 teaspoon Carom seeds (ajwain)
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 2 cups Oil for frying

Directions

Step 1

Grate the zucchini and place it in a cloth or paper towel. Squeeze out as much water as possible to prevent the bhujia from becoming soggy.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the grated zucchini, almond flour, besan, turmeric, red chili powder, salt, asafoetida, and carom seeds.

Step 3

Mix the ingredients well, adding water gradually to form a dough-like consistency. It should be firm enough to hold shape but not too dry.

Step 4

Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat.

Step 5

While the oil is heating, transfer the mixture into a piping bag fitted with a small star nozzle or a sev maker.

Step 6

Once the oil is hot, carefully pipe the mixture directly into the hot oil in a circular motion to form small clusters.

Step 7

Fry the bhujia on medium heat until it turns crispy and golden brown, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 8

Use a slotted spoon to remove the bhujia from the oil and drain it on paper towels to remove excess oil.

Step 9

Repeat the frying process with the remaining batter in batches.

Step 10

Allow the Keto Aloo Bhujia to cool to room temperature before serving or storing in an airtight container.
