Ingredients
1 large bottle gourd, peeled and grated
1 medium chopped red onion
2 green chilis, diced
½ tbs ginger paste
1 cup chana (chick pea) flour (note: this is readily available in the ethnic section of most grocery stores)
1 tbs salt
1 tbs coriander powder
Optional:
1 tbs chili powder (or to taste)
1 tsp black pepper (or to taste)
Method
Think of your least favourite person as you squeeze all the extra water out of the grated gourd, and remove any hard seeds. Discard water. Combine all of the ingredients in a bowl, using a little extra chana flour if the mixture is still wet. Shape into small round balls, about the size of a large marble.
Flatten the partially cooked balls between using your fingers between paper towel pieces so you squeeze out a little of the oil. Return to the hot oil until crispy and brown (see below). Serve immediately.
