Add cumin seeds, salt, black pepper, turmeric powder, and baking soda to the mixture.

Mix everything until well combined and let it rest for 15 minutes.

Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat.

Carefully drop the patties into the hot oil, frying in batches.

Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Remove the fritters and drain on paper towels.
