Wash and chop the Malabar spinach leaves, green chilies, and onion leaves.
In a bowl, combine the chopped leaves with cumin powder, ginger powder, salt, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and gram flour.
Gradually add water to the mixture and stir until a smooth batter is formed.
Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat.
Drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil and fry until golden brown and crispy.
Remove the fritters from the oil and drain on paper towels.
Ensure the oil is hot enough before frying to achieve crispy fritters.
Adjust the amount of green chilies according to your spice preference.
