I didn't like these bhajis at all. They were too spicy and didn't have much flavor.

These bhajis were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll try adding more spices next time.

I loved the crispy coating on these bhajis! The vegetables inside were perfectly cooked and still had a bit of crunch.

These bhajis were a bit too oily for my taste. I think I'll try baking them next time instead of frying them.

I thought these bhajis were a bit too dry. I think I'll try adding more moisture next time, maybe some yogurt or buttermilk.

These bhajis were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them! I think I'll try making them again with less chili powder next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and my bhajis turned out great! The spice blend was perfect and the bhajis were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. I served them with a yogurt sauce and they were delicious.

I made these bhajis for my family and they were a big success! My kids loved them and even my picky husband couldn't get enough. They're a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables.
