NOTE: If you can purchase ready made chilli bite/ bhajia mix from a store or an Indian grocer omit the mix, and just add to it the herbs and veg. Don't bother trying to make round shapes, just drop small amounts of the batter into the hot oil. The hotter the oil the less oil absorbed by the bhajia, therefore drop in small quantities to make sure the inside is cooked.
