Crispy Chicken Balls
These are easy to make because there are no potatoes to boil, no breadcrumbs or eggs.
Ingredients
- 2.5 cups cooked chicken minced
- 1/4 cup cilantro leaves chopped
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp Red Chili Powder
- 1/4 tsp ground turmeric
- 1/2 tsp garam masala
- 1/2 cup red onion minced
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 inch ginger
- 4 tbsps rice flour more if necessary
- oil for frying
Instructions
- Heat up a pan with oil halfway up the pan.
- Into a bowl, add the minced chicken, grate the one garlic clove, grate the 1 inch piece of ginger root. Add the red onion, spices, cilantro leaves. Mix this well. Now add the rice flour. First add 3 tablespoons. Mix this well. Now add just enough water so the chicken mixture holds together, a few tablespoons at a time. Make small balls and set aside.
- When the oil is hot, put the balls in. Turn over and fry until a deep golden brown on both sides. Drain them and put them on a paper towel lined plate.
- These are best eaten right away. They are just one or two bites. I serve different sauces with these chicken balls. Ketchup, mint chutney and a hot sauce.
- Makes 30 small balls. Serves 6 to 8 people as an appetizer.
