Note
  • If making for kids: Skip green chili if making for kids.
  • If making for fasting: These patties can be prepared during fasting also, just by replacing arrow root powder with corn flour.
  • Refrigerate patties for minimum 20 minutes for hassle free frying. It helps patties form getting burst in oil.
