Step 2

  • Soak the green gram in water for 5 to 6 hours.
  • Drain excess water. Grind to a coarse paste.
  • Add very little water as we want a thick batter.
  • Add chopped coriander leaves, green chillies and ginger paste salt and asafoetida. Add bengal gram flour. Mix everything and keep aside.

Cut paneer cubes

 

Step 3

  • Cut paneer into cubes and put aside.
  • In a pan, heat oil for frying.
  • Take paneer cubes, dip it in the moong dal batter and make balls.

Dip the paneer balls in crushed papad

 

Step 4

  • Roll the balls in crushed papads and deep fry on a slow flame. There is a possibility that the batter will be undercooked and papad overcooked if you fry it on medium or high flame.
  • Serve hot with your favourite chutney or sauce.
