Deep Fried Batter Balls
Makes - 5-6 Servings
| All purpose flour | - 1 cup |
| Rice flour | - ½ cup |
| Baking soda | - a pinch |
| Yogurt | - ½ cup |
| Onions | - ¼ chopped |
| Green chillies | - 3 chopped |
| Curry leaves | - 3-4 (for added flavor, optional) |
| water | - to make thick batter |
| Salt | - to taste |
| Oil | - for deep frying |
Heat oil in a pan to about 350 F.
Take all the ingredients in a bowl, add water and mix together to form a thick batter. You want the batter thick enough to be able to scoop with a spoon.
First, test oil by dropping few drops of batter in the frying pan. Taste to make sure it is fully cooked.
Now, simply mound the batter on a teaspoon and drop the batter into the hot oil.
Fry in small batches in oil over medium heat for about 3-4 minutes or until a deep golden brown.
Drain on paper towel and serve immediately with tomato ketchup.
