Instructions
Combine the maida, rice flour, gram flour and curd in a large bowl.
Mix well until thick. The batter should not be watery. If it is too watery, then it will absorb too much oil.
Keep aside for 5 to 6 hours.
Add the green chillies, salt, cooking soda, curry leaves, ginger, asafoetida powder and coriander leaves.
Mix well.
Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium flame.
Pinch small balls from the thick batter and carefully drop them gently into the hot oil.
Fry on both sides until golden brown and crisp.
Remove and drain excess oil.
Serve with chutney of choice.
