This will be a perfect snack for your kid. I'm trying for the first time and it came out good...
Ingredients:
| Potato | 2 |
| Carrot,green peas | 1 cup |
| Big onion | 1(small) |
| Green chilly | 3 |
| Chilly Powder | 1/2 tspoon |
| Turmeric Powder | 1/4 tspoon |
| Garam Masala | 1 tspoon |
| Salt | to taste |
| Maida | 1/4 cup |
| Bread crumbs | 1 cup |
| Oil | to deep fry |
Preparation:
(1) Chop vegetables into small cube shapes. I used potato, peas and carrot. Chop onion and green chillies into thin pieces.
(2) Pressure cook potato for 2 whistles and mash it well. Steam cook vegetables till it turns soft : For that keep vegetables in a steel bowl and close it with a lid. Keep it inside a pressure cooker . Above the lid you can keep potatoes. Pressure cook everything for 2 whistles(You can also pressure cook/cook vegetables with water. But extract water out of it using muslin cloth or cotton cloth, should not retain water in it). Once the vegetables are cooled down slightly mash it using hand. Keep it aside.
(3) Heat 2 tspoon of oil in a pan. Add chopped onion and green chilly with little salt. Saute till onion turns brownish. Now add chilly powder, turmeric powder and garam masala. Saute till raw smell leaves.
(4) Add cooked veggies and mashed potato to it with little salt. Mix well. Now your masala is ready. Allow it to cool. Once it is cooled add 2 tbl spoon of bread crumbs to this and mix well using hand. While mixing break if there are any lumps. Try to make a smooth mixture so that you can easily shape it.
(5) Mean while heat oil in a tawa to deep fry. Once masala is cooled down divide it into equal balls. Slightly press it using the hand and make circle shapes(you can make your desired shape).
(6) Also mix maida with water and make a loose batter (i used besan flour instead of maida). Dip one piece into maida mix and immediately coat it with bread crumbs.
(7) Drop that piece to oil. Continue with other pieces too. Fry till it is cooked.
Tips:
- You can use other vegetables like beans and beet root.
- It is better to steam cook the vegetables.
- For non-veg lovers, you can beat 2 eggs and use it as the first coating instead of maida.
- I used home made bread crumbs. You can get it from store too.
