                                             Cheesy Zucchini Sandwich Fritters (Bhajiyas)

Rains and fritters or bhajiyas or pakodas are a hit hit combination for  us Indians!! So one of those cheat days when indulgence takes over.......yeah and here goes my version of the cheat dish, of course not to forget the mention of the batata vada and the mirchi bhajis on the platter!!! In the picture above you can see the zucchin, the melted cheese and the cottage cheese.......yummmm

Ingredients

1 yellow zucchini chopped into thin roundels kept ready with a wee bit of salt sprinkled on them
Cottage cheese chopped into thin  pieces  as big to fit into the zucchini
Britannia cheese slices made into pieces as big to fit into the zucchini

For the batter

3 cups of bengal gram flour (chana atta)
1/2 cup of rice flour 
1 tsp of carom seeds crushed between palms
Salt as per need
Chili powder as per taste
1 tsp coriander powder
1/2 tsp of edible soda

Oil for frying

Method

In a vessel take the flour and the rest of the ingredients mentioned with it and mix with water to a consistency which is neither too flowy nor too thick. Keep oil for frying once the oil is hot you can just put a small portion of the batter first and taste to check if salt and the consistency are all good. Once ready you take the zucchini pieces make a sandwich with cottage cheese and cheese, dip each one in the batter, leave it in the oil with care and fry on medium flame till light brown and crisp. have with masala chai on a rainy evening.

In the same batter you can make fritters or bhajiyas only with zucchini, cottage cheese, cheese and chilies too.
