Eggplant Pakoras

1 Tbsp. caraway seeds
1 tsp. oregano seeds
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
2 tsp. turmeric
2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. black pepper
1/2 tsp. ground cloves
3/4 cup onion juice or puree
1/2 cup milk
Hot water
Extra virgin olive oil
Mix the besan with spices in a bowl. Add the onion juice and milk and mix until smooth. Add hot water if needed, to make a nice rich batter. Any lumps should be squeezed out through your fingers or broken with a fork. Dip the eggplant (slice almost 1/2" thick in circles) in the batter. Fry in hot oil until browned and drain on paper toweling.
