Recipe preparation:
1 Mix well the ingredients for the filling and keep aside. Prepare the batter – it should be slightly thinner than pancake batter consistency. Dont make it too thin or else it will not coat the filling well. 2 Heat the oil. Make small lemon sized balls of the filling, dip it in the batter and deep fry in the oil till the outside turns slightly golden brown in colour. Drain on paper towels and serve with cilantro-mint chutney and/or good ol ketchup.
