Yields: Serves 4 people
Ingredients
- 1 cup spinach, washed, stem removed, chopped
- 1/2 cup paneer, grated
- 2 tablespoons cheese, grated (I used mozzarella)
- 3 slices bread, torn into crumbs
- 1 teaspoon chili flakes or pizza seasonings
- 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1 inch ginger, grated
- 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
- 2-3 tablespoons maida (all-purpose flour), for coating the dough balls
- 1 green chili, not a hot variety, finely chopped
- oil for deep-frying
Instructions
- In a large bowl, add chopped spinach, grated paneer, grated cheese, bread crumbs, grated ginger, chopped green chili, red chili flakes or pizza seasonings, cumin seeds, and salt.
- Knead, adding just enough water to make a firm dough. Divide the dough into 10 equal portions. Shape each of the portions like a ball. Roll these balls in the all-purpose flour (maida).
- Deep-fry the balls in moderately hot oil until they turn golden brown and crunchy. While frying, turn the balls occasionally to ensure uniform cooking.
- Remove them and place on an absorbent paper. Repeat the process to fry all the dough balls.
- Yummy spinach, paneer, and cheese balls are now ready to munch!
- Serve them hot with tomato sauce. Enjoy!
