Method

Cooking Directions

1

Prepare the Sago

Soak the sago in water for about 1-2 hours until soft. Drain and set aside.

2

Cook the Potatoes

Peel and boil the potatoes until tender. Mash them and let them cool.

3

Sauté the Ingredients

In a pan, heat a tablespoon of oil, add cumin seeds, chopped onions, green chilies, and ginger-garlic paste. Sauté until onions are translucent.

4

Add Spinach

Add the chopped spinach to the pan and cook until wilted. Mix in the mashed potatoes, sago, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.

5

Shape the Croquettes

Allow the mixture to cool slightly, then shape it into small, round croquettes. Roll each croquette in breadcrumbs to coat.

6

Fry the Croquettes

In a deep frying pan, heat the oil. Fry the croquettes in batches until golden brown and crispy. Drain on paper towels.

7

Serve

Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
