Kadamba bajji recipe, Mixed vegetable bajji

Kadamba bajji/ Mixed vegetable bajji is a delicious platter of puffy tea time snack that is served during evenings but much preferred by all during rainy season/ winter. We usually eat/make  bajji with 1 or 2 veggies but this kadamba bajji is a platter of  mixed veggies bajji  in which you get to taste bajji with many veggies. I have used here veggies like carrot, capsicum, potato, onion and plaNtain but you could add bajji chili and eggplant. My mom usually makes this kadamba bajji at home so that everyone gets to eat their favorite veggie dipped in besan batter and fried to perfection. It is winter here and it there is a lot of downpour in many places so thought that this recipe will be ideal  for the current scenario. I have earlier shared many snacks recipes like these:
