Kola Urundai Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mixture

    In a mixing bowl, combine minced lamb, finely chopped onion, ginger-garlic paste, green chilies, coriander leaves, mint leaves, rice flour, black pepper powder, and salt. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

  2. 2

    Form the Balls

    Take a small portion of the mixture and shape it into a ball, about the size of a golf ball. Repeat until all the mixture is used.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep frying pan, heat oil over medium heat. Ensure that there is enough oil to submerge the meatballs.

  4. 4

    Fry the Meatballs

    Once the oil is hot, carefully drop in the meatballs in batches. Fry until they are golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per batch. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve hot with chutney or a side of your choice.
