- Add all the spices, salt and chopped onions, green chillies, mint and coriander and mix properly and keep aside.
- Take 1/4 cup of water and dissolve cornflour in it to make a solution.
- Pinch a large lemon sized ball and roll it between your palm to make an oval shape kofta. Similarly make koftas from rest of the dough of same size and shape and keep aside.
- Heat oil in a wok for frying. Once the oil is hot, take kofta in your hand and dip it in the cornflour solution and fry carefully till golden in color. Similarly dip other koftas too in the cornflour solution and fry in batches. Put them aside on a kitchen towel so that the excess oil is drained out.
