The popular South Indian street food is a ball-shaped fritter stuffed with spicy potato filling that makes up for a perfect snack –it’s even better homemade!
Here’s how it’s done!
Ingredients:

Chilli Powder 1 tbsp
Salt 1 ⅓ tsp
Water
Oil 1 tbsp
Mustard Seeds ½ tsp
Green Chilli 3 nos
Garlic 3 cloves + Ginger ½ tsp
Curry Leaves
Big Onion 1 large
Turmeric ½ tsp
Curry Powder 1 tsp
Coriander Leaves ¼ cup
Boiled Mashed Potatoes 500 g
Method:
To make the batter, whisk together chickpea flour, rice flour, chilli powder, salt and water.
Heat up a pan with oil and begin frying mustard seeds, green chilli, garlic, ginger, curry leaves, chopped onion and turmeric.
Next, add curry powder, coriander leaves, mashed potatoes and salt to the pan and stir well to combine.
