The classic comfort food for a rainy day in most Indian Households is a platter of Crisp, piping hot Bhajias/Pakoras and cups of spicy hot Masala Tea. The assorted vegetables used for the fries were anything from Potatoes (the favorites that got polished off first) to rounds of eggplant, plantain, cauliflower, the occasional green tomato, and finally sliced onions which were tossed to be coated in the last of the batter and fried up in the very end. <br />Growing up, zucchinis were unheard of although there were variants of the squash. but they make for an awesome candidate for Bhajias. <br /> As to why these were more of fries rather than roundels, its because my 6 year old insisted on having a snack of zucchini sticks which she promptly left untouched after a single glance. and there was no way i was going to let a whole farm fresh specimen go to waste.
