Notes
Many don't use ginger garlic paste. But my mom always uses them while making bajji and we like it. You can skip it
Baking soda gives soft, fluffy bajji
If the batter is too thin it will not coat the bajji and if it is too thick bajji will be hard. So adjust accordingly. if your batter becomes thin, you can add little besan flour and adjust.
You can use only rice flour or corn flour or mix of both
