Kenyan Bajias | Traditional Snack From Kenya | TasteAtlas

Kenyan Bajias

Kenyan bajias are a popular street food item consisting of thinly sliced potatoes that are seasoned with turmeric, cumin, chili powder, garam masala, coriander, ginger, salt, and black pepper. The potatoes are then battered and fried until golden brown.


Although the meal is native to coastal towns in Kenya, this delicious street snack was originally influenced by Indian people who were working on the railroad. It is recommended to pair bajias with a mango chutney called madras.
