A bhaji, bhajji, or bajji is a spicy Indian snack or entree dish similar to a fritter, with several variants. It is a popular snack food in Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, West Bengal and Odisha in India, and can be found for sale in street-side stalls, especially in tapris (on streets) and dhabas (on highways).
Outside the Indian states of Gujarat, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, and Karnataka, such preparations are often known as pakora.
Bhajis are a component of traditional Marathi, Tamil, and Telugu cuisine served on special occasions and at festivals. They are generally served with a cup of coffee, tea, or a traditional serving of yameen. They use banana peppers for making mirchi bhajji.
Its variations include the chili bajji and the bread bajji (or bread pakoda).
Onion bhajis are often eaten as a starter in Indian restaurants before the main course, along with poppadoms and other Indian snacks. They may be served with a side of salad and slice of lemon, or with mango chutney, and are traditionally made to a mild taste.
