Here’s the updated recipe for Aloo Poha Cheese Balls in an appe pan, replacing green chilies with chili powder:
Ingredients:
Potatoes (boiled and mashed) – 2 medium
Poha (flattened rice) – 1 cup (soaked and squeezed)
Rava (semolina) – 2 tbsp (for binding)
Carrot (grated) – 1/4 cup
Beetroot (grated) – 1/4 cup
Cheese (grated or cubes) – 1/2 cup or small cubes for filling
Cornflour – 2 tbsp
Water – to make slurry
Red chili powder – 1 tsp (adjust to taste)
Coriander leaves – 2 tbsp, chopped
Salt – to taste
Chaat masala – 1 tsp
Cumin powder – 1/2 tsp
Garam masala – 1/2 tsp
Oil – for greasing and cooking
Instructions:
1. Prepare the mixture:
In a bowl, combine mashed potatoes, soaked poha, grated carrot, beetroot, and rava.
Add red chili powder, salt, chaat masala, cumin powder, garam masala, and coriander leaves.
Mix well to form a dough-like consistency.
2. Prepare the corn slurry:
Mix cornflour with water to create a smooth, slightly thick slurry.
3. Shape the balls:
Take a small portion of the mixture, flatten it, and place a cheese cube in the center.
Roll it into a smooth ball.
4. Coat the balls:
Dip each ball into the corn slurry and roll it lightly in dry rava for a crispy coating.
5. Cook in the appe pan:
Heat the appe pan and grease each cavity with a little oil.
Place the prepared balls into the cavities.
Cover and cook on medium flame until golden brown on one side, then flip and cook the other side.
6. Serve:
Remove the crispy balls from the pan and serve hot with ketchup, mint chutney, or a spicy mayo dip.
This version with red chili powder adds a warm spice level without green chilies and retains the delicious flavor!
