Combine the mashed potato, grated paneer, grated carrot, mashed green peas, grated ginger, chopped green chili, coriander powder, cumin powder, garam masala, all-purpose flour, and salt for the kofta mixture in a large bowl.
约 10分钟
烹饪提示: Ensure the vegetables are well-drained to prevent the kofta from being too wet.
- 2
Mix all ingredients thoroughly until a firm dough forms, then divide the mixture into 12-15 equal portions.
约 5分钟
烹饪提示: If the mixture is too sticky, add a little more all-purpose flour.

Roll each portion into a smooth, round ball.
约 10分钟

Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan or kadai over medium heat until it reaches about 170°C (340°F).
约 5分钟
烹饪提示: Use enough oil so the koftas are submerged for even cooking.
- 5
Carefully lower a few kofta balls into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.
- 6
Fry the koftas, turning occasionally, until they are golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per batch.
约 20分钟
烹饪提示: Adjust heat to prevent burning the outside before the inside cooks.

Remove the fried koftas with a slotted spoon and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

In a separate large pan or pot, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat.
