This one’s an unique combo of my two favourites again- The Fusion of the very INDO-CHINESE delicacies…
So simple to prepare-
Absolutely, an easy-peasy dish yet uniquely delicious & very much appreciated when both the Indo-Chinese touches are vividly combined & presented into the same to make it extra sensational & immensely delectable !!!

Steps

30 mins.

1

First Up: Well wash & strain the Poha for sometime to drain out excess water from it- Let it rest for at least 10-15 mins time.
Proceed with your rest other arrangements for the same 👇🏻
2

Add in a large mixing bowl: Aforementioned all the ingredients for the Manchurian Balls now- Mix everything well together with your hands, until nicely combined and well blended by smashing the ingredients as much as is possible in order to form a smooth & lump free balls while shaping them up, individually
3

Apply some oil into your palms nicely-
Take lemon sized balls according to your choicest sizes & roll it out to a smooth small balls (Refer to the pics given below)👇🏻
4

Heat up a frying pan over the medium-high flame- Once hot sufficiently, drop in these prepared Manchurian Balls in it (in one go or in batches, depending on the size of your pan/vessel)- 👇🏻
5

Fry them nicely until golden browned on all round its sides, perfectly well- 👇🏻
Strain them out to place them on a separate plate/dish, lined up with a kitchen towel/tissue
6

Now, for the gravy: Again, in a frying pan- Heat up required amount of the oil, then sauté the onions until lightly golden browned by adding some salt in it to hasten the process-
Then, add in all other ingredients & veggies one by one to gently sauté them all 👇🏻
7

Add in the sauces & ketchup to it by adding a very little amount of water to it since this is mainly a dry one ☝️ hence we don’t need water, more than that- This is used in order to ensure that the veggies are all well cooked & don’t remain undercooked by any chance
8

Now, add in this thick gravy mixture the fried Manchurian Balls & mix everything well together until nicely combined and well blended with each other- Check on the seasonings part & adjust accordingly if required at all- Flame goes off
9

Cover the pan now for another 5-6 mins time before serving it piping hot with your choicest fried rice, noodles or simply any types of Indian Breads or similar-
As not to forget, this one’s completely a FUSION RECIPE-
Time to RELISH this DELISH now…
