I'm not a huge fan of zucchini, but these bhajis were surprisingly good. The carrot and zucchini flavors balance each other out perfectly. I'll definitely be making them again.

These bhajis were really good, but they were a bit too spicy for my taste. I'll definitely be making them again, but I'll use less spice next time.

These bhajis were really good! I used a bit more spice than the recipe called for and they were perfect.

These bhajis were really good, but they were a bit too greasy for my taste. I'll definitely be making them again, but I'll try to reduce the amount of oil next time.

These bhajis were a bit too spicy for my taste, but they were still really good. I'll definitely be making them again, but I'll use less spice next time.

These were delicious! I made them for a party and everyone loved them. They're a great way to use up leftover vegetables, and they're really healthy too.
