Sweet Potato(Genasu) Bajji / Bajji batter

I wanted to post something special for New Year. I thought so long and hard as to what to post, by the time Sankranthi was here :) 

Sankranthi came and went, but I am still thinking. Frustrated, I opened my laptop today and decided to post something and just be done with it :) 

Thankfully I found Genasu bajji(which I had completely forgotten), which I recently learnt from my mom. 

This is my mom’s trademark recipe. Unlike other bajjis, here you add freshly ground masala, which gives a very unique taste. I’m glad to share this special recipe with you’ll today. 

Happy New Year! Happy Sankranthi!! 

Sweet Potato Fries

Another easy and healthy snack which “hides” the real vegetable under the disguise of fries. It’s so tasty and easy, you can make it in no time. 

In my native place, whenever any of us kids said we are bored or don’t know what to do,  the elders would say “genegu beyisu hogu”, meaning - go cook sweet potato. I have no idea why that is linked with boredom.. should ask somebody the logic behind that phrase.. 

Coming back to the recipe. You cut sweet potatoes into thin strips. Put some spices and bake - it’s as simple as that. Kids will love it for sure..  

Do try!
