MAKING
Start by heating up Hudson Canola Oil in a pan for deep frying.
In a mixing bowl, add the grated carrots, boiled and mashed potatoes, coriander, green chili, ginger garlic paste and mix well.
Now add in the nutmeg, cinnamon, red chili powder, plain flour and custard powder and incorporate it well.
Just before you're ready to shape and fry, add the salt in mix well and make long cylindrical type shapes of about 3 inches.
Coat it in custard powder well, then roll it between your hands to make sure its coated well, dip in water and roll in bread crumbs. Roll it in your hands to make sure the bread crumbs stick.
Once these are ready, deep fry till half way done in medium flame.
Take them out once halfway cooked, and let them cool. Increase the flame to high and let the oil get hot well, and then add the bullets to the hot oil. Fry until crunchy and serve.
SERVING
Serve with your favorite sauce.
NOTES
You can also squeeze out the water from the carrots if you wish to, which might make this a little bit dry, and skip the potatoes as well that’s how it was where I had it.. I don’t like to squeeze the nutritious juice of carrots.
Make sure the potatoes are not over boiled and are refrigerated for quite a time after boiling.
Best to boil in night and refrigerate till morning if you wish to pack this as a snack for your lil one in lunchbox.
