Cooking Instructions
- 1
Squeeze zucchini with hands as much as you can to remove all excess liquid. Discard liquid.
- 2
In a large bowl mix together zucchini, green chilis, ginger,parsley,salt and baking powder.
- 3
Heat enough oil to deep fry in a deep fryer or deep welled skillet or wok until hot.
- 4
While oil is heating add the flour to the zucchini mix and knead until sticky and moldable. If too loose add more flour.
- 5
NOTE: as mixture sits the zucchini will continue to make liquid so add flour as needed between batches of frying.
- 6
Mold into 1/2 tbl sized balls (about 25 total)
- 7
When oil reaches 355°F slip about 6 balls at a time into hot oil. Seperate them as they float together so they dont stick.
- 8
Fry until deep golden and crunchy.
- 9
Transfer to a paper towel lined plate to drain for a moment.
- 10
Transfer to a warm serving dish and keep warm. Repeat until all balls are cooked.
- 11
Serve with my indian tomato gravy or marinara sauce.
- 12
Serve hot and enjoy! Adapted from the art of indian vegetarian cooking by: yamura devi

Palak Kofta / Spinach Balls Curry Palak Kofta / Spinach Balls Curry
I had made this Palak kofta curry for dinner last night. Koftas turned out really delicious. My son gobbled up a couple of koftas just like that... said they tasted good as is and didn't want to wait until the curry was ready. The spices in the gravy were well balanced. Koftas had a thin crispy covering with soft flavourful center..Flashback⏪, my mom used to make palak kofta curry when I was a little girl. My last attempt at making these koftas was way back in 2001. As a newly-wed I wanted to impress hubby dear.😉 Needless to say, the curry did not turn out the way I had imagined or remembered how it tasted when mom made. Unfortunately, picking up phone & making a call across oceans, every time I attempted something to cook was not an option back then...blame it on time zone difference and high international call rates.😆.Current day⏩, years of experience and confidence in my cooking skills and a zeal for variety in my meals got me to making these palak koftas again. I must say, they turned out so delicious that I'm already thinking about other vegetables that can be used to making koftas..This is my contribution to the second phase of #itsprocessoverproduct.To see more of my work, follow onInstagram- @TheRedPlateChroniclesFacebook - TheRedPlateChroniclesWordpress - http://theredplatechronicles.home.blogLoveM❤️ The Red Plate Chronicles -

Authentic Indian Kofta Croquet Curry Authentic Indian Kofta Croquet Curry
Koftas are an essential dish for vegetarians! They are different from Japanese croquets and tasty too!Soak cashew nuts in water and chop finely. Add this to the kofta batter to give richness.If necessary, add some water to the batter because if the batter is too stiff, you might find it difficult to shape into balls. Instead of wheat flour, use chickpea flour for a more authentic taste. Recipe by Yupochi cookpad.japan -
