Description: METHI NA GOTA RECIPE INGREDIENTS USED: * Chopped White Onion (Dungri) * Fresh Fenugreek Leaves (Methi) * Finely blended Green Chillies Paste (Lilu Mirch) * Lemon Juice (Limbu) * Sugar (Karn) * Baking Powder * Chickpea Flour (Besan / Gram flour) * Water (Pani) * Salt (Namak) * Oil for deep frying (Tel) This is a special treat because i get to watch one of my favourite vegan starter items being made. In this video the Lady Chef shows us how she makes Sharmilee restaurant's version of Methi na Gota. Also seen being made are: * "Aton Bombs" Potato filled with Garlic & Red Chilli * Bateta Vada, the Bateta Vada are fried twice (first half fried and then full fried) which gives a crisper texture to the Vadas. * Bharela Mircha (Large mild Chillies stuffed with a spicy filling) Some Indian recipe books that you may perhaps like: * Chai, Chaat & Chutney: A Street Food Journey Through India: amzn.to/3f6bLRm * Recipe cookbook from Dishoom Indian restaurant: amzn.to/35ghXl8 * Madhur Jaffrey's Ultimate Curry Bible: amzn.to/39VaIBl * Leon Happy Curries (Happy Leons): amzn.to/3k4OrWu * The Curry Guy: Recreate Over 100 of the Best British Indian Restaurant Recipes at Home: amzn.to/3ijsh1h * Indian Restaurant Curry at Home Volume 1: Misty Ricardo's Curry Kitchen: amzn.to/2PAWTit * The Hairy Bikers' Great Curries: amzn.to/31wU9Iv * British Indian Restaurant Food At Home: It's Easy When You Know How: amzn.to/3fw73v0 * Asma's Indian Kitchen: Home-cooked food brought to you by Darjeeling Express: amzn.to/31mibG1 🛒 Our Amazon Storefront Shop: amazon.co.uk/shop/travelsinindialondontheuk 🛒 (Disclosure: The above links on this page are affiliate links to Amazon, meaning that if you decide to make a purchase, at no extra cost to you, I will earn a small commission). Bhajias (and Pakoras) are a very common Indian street food; it is a very popular menu item at most roadside stalls as well as restaurants in India and Pakistan. This is my 7th video at Sharmilee Sweetmart, in the 6 previous videos I recorded some sweet and savoury vegetarian cooking action + a taste test of their massive buffet for all you foodie and kitchen action fans. Hopefully you've previously seen the previous videos, if not then here's the links to the 6 previous videos that i've recorded here: * Thinly Sliced Crispy Potato Bhajia Recipe: youtu.be/3EquIN2K1Zo * MASSIVE "All You Can Eat" £6.95 Unlimited Buffet Thali, Taste Test at Sharmilee Restaurant Leicester: youtu.be/-1QqUbqqvtQ * Paneer Tawa Masala + Sweetcorn & Spinach Curry Recipe (Makai Palak): youtu.be/caBlf2TckI0 * Kidney Beans + Aubergine & Potato Curry Recipes: youtu.be/9NyWT8fEe5I * Dhokra / Dhokla Making Process + Buying Indian Sweets and Snacks at Sharmilee: youtu.be/qECXHsZl1aw * GULAB JAMUN and JALEBI HEAVEN: Recipe Making Process at Sharmilee Indian Sweetmart, Leicester: youtu.be/Py3XcGlF74w This is one of Leicester's Golden Mile's "Desi Restaurant's" and amongst one of our favourite places to visit when ever we happen to be in Leicester, their massive "all you can eat" buffet is an absolute bargain which is priced at £6.95 Monday to Fridays and goes up to £9.95 at the weekends. As you probably know by now, we absolutely love Desi places like this, a place serving delicious restaurant quality, home cooked food; but at very affordable street food prices!!! There are many other Desi Indian vegetarian "Street Eat" items on the menu which we didn't get to eat this time around, so we can't wait to pay a return visit wink wink!!! ;-) It's a place which serves food that is blessed by hand and human touch and further energised and charged by positive thoughts. A special thank you to Sudir Gosai, Ashish Bhai and all of the Sharmilee Team who welcomed us and graciously allowed us a privileged glimpse into their kitchen and shop to do the videoing.
