• To Make Thick Sauce

• This is an important part of the recipe and must be followed carefully.

• To Fry

• Take a small bowl and add the remaining maida to it.
• Add water little by little to make a batter.
• Take a flat plate and add the bread crumbs to it.
• Use one of your hands to dunk a ball into the batter and use the other hand to cover it with the bread crumbs.
• Repeat the process for the rest of the mixture and set it aside.
• Meanwhile, heat oil in a kadhai.
• Drop a ball into the oil to check the heat of the oil. If it seems fine, add a couple more. Never add more than three or four balls at a time. This will help avoid the risk of the balls from splitting into the oil.
