Got Carrot Salad? Got 20 Minutes? by kathy gori

I love stuff that's fast and easy. These are the recipes that are lifesavers especially when "stuff" happens, for lack of a better word.

Onion Bhajia (or Pakora) by Haresh Shah

This is an excellent snack and goes well with beer, wine or any soft drink. Best eaten when hot from the frying pan. One could replace onion with any other vegetable such as sliced potato, sliced egg plant, etc.
