Season the mixture with 2 teaspoons of red chili flakes, 1 teaspoon of cumin powder, 0.5 teaspoon of turmeric powder, and 2 teaspoons of amchur powder.

6

Add 2 finely chopped garlic cloves, 1 tablespoon of finely chopped fresh mint leaves, 1 tablespoon of finely chopped fresh cilantro, and 1 finely chopped green chili to the mixture.

7

Gently mix all the ingredients together until they form a dough-like consistency.

8

Cover the mixture and let it rest for at least half an hour.

9

Dab oil onto your palms to prevent sticking, then take a small ball of the mixture and shape it into a patty.

Heat 2 cups of oil in a heavy-bottom skillet over medium heat.

Fry about five patties at a time, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.

Once cooked, lift the patties from the oil and drain excess oil on a wire rack.
