  2. Heat the oil in a pan. Add the green chillies and crushed garlic. Fry on medium heat for about 2  minute(s) or just till the raw smell of the garlic is gone. The garlic should remain white in color.
  3. Add the potato cubes, half the turmeric powder and salt to taste. Mix well whilst mashing half of the potatoes with the back of the ladle on medium heat for about 4  minutes. Put off the flame and let cool. Mix in the coriander leaves. Make lemon-sized balls.
  4. To make the batter, mix together the gramflour, red chilli powder, remaining turmeric powder, soda bicarbonate, asafoetida powder and salt to taste with water just enough to make a thick batter. Dip each ball in the batter and deep fry in hot oil in batches on medium flame till light golden brown in color. Remove onto a paper towel.
