"Looks Amazing" - US-Based Chef Makes Perfectly Crisp Onion Bhajiyas, Impresses Foodies

Videos of foreigners cooking popular Indian dishes often go viral on Instagram. Sometimes they receive interest because a vlogger has nailed the recipe, other times because they failed spectacularly.

Ana Sofia from Los Angeles shared a recipe video for crispy and yummy onion bhajiyas. Her post has received a lot of appreciation online.

She cuts up some green chillies before prepping the ginger, garlic, coriander leaves, mint leaves and limes. Later, she blends these ingredients along with a little yoghurt to make a special green chutney. She roasts cumin seeds and coriander seeds together. She then pounds them in a mortar and pestle until she gets a powdered masala. She combines it with besan, rice flour, onions, turmeric powder, red chilli powder and other spices in a large bowl. She also adds grated ginger, garlic, and coriander leaves for extra flavour. She mixes all the ingredients by hand and divides the mixture into small ball-like shapes. She deep-fries the bhajiyas until they are crisp and golden brown. Finally, Ana can be seen tasting the fried treat with her homemade chutney. She seems to enjoy it, noting, "That's spicy!"

Sixth edition of Kochi-Muziris Biennale titled ‘For the Time Being', to get under way on December 12

The sixth edition of the Kochi-Muziris Biennale (KMB), organised by the Kochi Biennale Foundation (KBF), will be titled 'For the Time Being.' Curated by artist Nikhil Chopra with HH Art Spaces, a Goa-based artist-led organisation, the biennale will run for 110 days, from December 12, 2025, through March 31, 2026. Curatorial framework The KBF also announced the curatorial framework for KMB '25. Alongside the international exhibition, the biennale will feature a diverse programme of talks, performances, workshops, and film screenings, unfolding across various sites in Kochi. Key programme verticals include the Students' Biennale, Invitations, Art By Children, the Residency Programme and the Collateral. The curatorial note by Nikhil Chopra states that the sixth edition of the KMB will embrace process as methodology and position 'friendship economies' as the very scaffolding of the exhibition. Moving away from the conventional biennale model of a singular, central exhibition event, the sixth edition is envisioned as a living ecosystem 'one where each element shares space, time, and resources, and grows in dialogue with each other,' a release issued here said. KBF Chair V. Venu said the biennale, over its past editions, has consistently risen in stature, attracting artworks from both celebrated and emerging talents from India and abroad. 'Organising such an event needs meticulous planning and strategies. We have introduced important organisational changes in the Kochi Biennale Foundation and we are confident to make a grand success of the sixth edition of the biennale. For both commoners and connoisseurs, it will offer a dynamic experience,' he was quoted as saying in the release. Bose Krishnamachari, president of the Kochi-Muziris Biennale, said that Nikhil Chopra's emphasis on durational exhibitions and performances will be a highlight of the sixth edition. 'Those visiting the biennale will be introduced to an immersive atmosphere, featuring spectacular artworks and site-responsive installations. The event will also offer abundant opportunities to engage with artists and fellow art enthusiasts, and witness the layered cultural life of Kochi, a city where global and local currents converge and diverge all at once,' he said.
