Vegetable Fritter / Bhajiya or Bhaji
Bhajiya or (Bajo in Konkani) is a very popular dish. It is served in any Konkani wedding lunch/dinner. Bhajiya can be made with different vegetables like egg plant, cauliflower, raw banana, okra, capsicum, onions, potato, drumsticks, pumpkin, jack fruit, bitter gourd, bread fruit and many other vegetables.
