Method:

Making manchurian balls:

Chop all the vegetables finely or mince them using knife or use food processor or chopper. Remove it to a bowl. Add salt and pepper. Also, add all purpose flour and corn flour. Mix well and try to pinch together using your hand. It should come together and you will be able to form a ball. If it is crumbly and dry then you can sprinkle little water and try binding together. Or if it is too sticky then add more flour. Start shaping all the balls; you will get around 10 balls. Now heat the oil in a pan on medium heat for deep-frying. Once hot, add balls into the oil. Keep moving and turning for even browning. Once they are fried and golden browned from all the sides, remove to a paper towel lined plate. Fry the second batch similarly!
