Notes

  • Peas or matar should retain some texture after grinding, we do not want a pasty mixture.
  • You can adjust the quantity of bread crumbs to adjust the consistency of mixture. It should resemble soft dough and should not be watery.
  • Instead of mushrooms you can add grated carrots too.
  • While frying turn them gently and cook on medium to slow heat.
