Vegetable manuchira : Steam the vegetables and let it cool then add flour, this makes manchuria soft, also add right amount of flour to the steamed vegetables - just enough to bind the vegetables together
Palak paneer: - add nutmeg and yogurt to the palak paneer instead of cream - it tastes like dhaba style.
Response: Thank you Suma for sharing the tips.

Good recipe but my manchurian balls were sticky and chewy. What should I do?
Response: Manchurian balls turn sticky and chewy if they are deep fried over low flame or if the flour is added more than given measurements.

I made vegetarian machurian following by your recipe but my manchurian balls always turn soft with too much oil that is why my family does not like and I would prefer crispy manchurian balls.
Can you please advise me how I can make crispy balls?
Thank you,
Bhoomi
Response: Hi Bhoomi, thanks for trying the recipe. If you deep fry the manchurian balls over low flame then they will absorb more oil. Follow the given steps to make them perfect.
1. Add the balls in oil when oil is medium hot. To check the oil is hot enough or not, drop a small portion of batter in oil and if it comes on the surface immediately without changing its color then it is ready.
2. Always deep fry them over medium flame until light brown and crispy from outer side.
3. Do not deep fry them over low flame or high flame.

Is there any substitute of cornflour / corn starch? If it's not available then?
Response: Hi Ankit, corn flour/ corn starch is used to make the outer layer crispy. If it is not available, you can use arrowroot powder.

Hello,
I tried it yesterday, it was very yummy.... just wanted to say that this is the best recipe I have ever tried..
Thanks a lot! Keep sharing such wonderful recipes..
Feb 18, 2015 by Falguni
It was best way explained step by step usually I am nervous with reading recipe and doing but it came out very good. Only one problem was that the balls were very soft what could be the reason? The mixture was not too soft, it was perfect. The balls coming out brown and nice but too soft.
Response: Hi Falguni, thanks for trying the recipe. Let me ask you one question, were the balls crispy from outside or not?
1. I think the reason behind the soft balls is the wrong temperature of oil. If you deep fry the balls when oil is too hot (when smoke comes out), balls will turn brown immediately but they will remain soft and uncooked from inside. Deep fry them over medium flame to cook them evenly and crispy from outside.
2. Do not skip the corn flour (corn starch) because it helps to make outer layer crispy.

Very nice and tasty recipe. I make it every week. Well done. When we fry the veg balls, they are crispy, but as soon as we deep the balls in gravy they become soft. So what can we do so that the balls remain crispy in the gravy also? Please suggest. Thanks.
Response: Hi Jarin, you cannot keep the balls crispy in gravy for longer period because manchurian absorbs the moisture from the gravy and turns soft. If you like the crispy balls then add them in the gravy just before the serving.

Why do you not use ajinomoto in chinese fried rice & manchurian dry receipe?
Response: Hi, ajinomoto enhances the flavor but not good for health so, we have not used it in our most of the recipes.

Tried the recipe today. The recipe is explained well however, the balls turned out very soft and started breaking while frying. Is there any way could I fix this issue the next time I try to make it?
Response: Hi smita, the reasons behind the balls started breaking while deep-frying are given below.
1. Make sure that oil is hot enough when you add the ball in oil for deep frying otherwise ball starts breaking. To check oil is hot enough or not, add a drop of batter in oil and check 1. if it comes upward immediately without changing its color then oil is ready, 2. if it comes upward immediately and turned brown then oil is too hot, 3. if it doesn't come on the surface, oil is not enough hot.
2. If you are not able to make the balls from the mixture because of excess water released from vegetables, add a tablespoon of maida and mix again. You can also squeeze out the excess water from grated carrots and cabbage before making the mixture.

Can you suggest something in replacement of soya sauce and chilli sauce?
Response: Hi Priya, you cannot replace soy sauce with any other ingredient, and for chili sauce, either you can add same amount of vinegar in place of it or skip it.

Jun 03, 2014 by Monika
manchurian balls are too hard n tough to eat...
Response: Hi Monika, thanks for trying the recipe. Manchurian balls could turn hard in following situations.
1. If quantity of flour used is higher than the quantity mentioned in the ingredients measurement. Please make sure that it is used in same quantity as given in the measures.
2. If prepared mixture (in step-2) is too hard then manchurian balls will turn hard. Make sure that prepared mixture is smooth. If vegetables do not release enough water then add additional water in the mixture.
3. If they are deep fried on low flame instead of on medium flame - they will turn hard and oily.

Jan 24, 2013 by Sejal
Thanks for the explain my mistake I forgot to squeeze out water but I think it\'s plain flour as well because it\'s not only soft it\'s test flour as well but any way I\'ll try it again thanks again.
Response: Hi Sejal,
Note that you need to squeeze out only the excess water but not all water otherwise balls will not bind together and they may split during deep frying.
Jan 23, 2013 by Sejal desai
Hi I made manchurian using ur recipe & when I tried to eat it's soft inside can u tell me why it's soft inside thanks for ur recipe
Response: Hi Sejal,
Thanks for the feedback and trying our recipe. The manchurian balls will never be as crispy inside as outside. However, if it's gooey inside then there could be two reasons for it; 1) Too much water being released from vegetables and 2) Insufficient deep-frying or deep-frying on high flame. The solution to this problem is to squeeze out the excess water from grated carrots and cabbage as well as deep-frying it on low to medium flame so that inside of balls cooks properly while outside layer doesn't burn. If this still doesn't solve the problem then you can reduce the quantity of maida to 1/4 cup and increase the quantity of corn flour to 3 tablespoons. Extra cornflour will give it a crispier texture. However, we recommend that you try the first two solutions first.

very well explained recipe, can't wait to try it.
Jul 11, 2012 by Manu
This is an excellent recipe. i made it as it is with little modification in amount of soya sauce and chilli sauce as my family likes bit spicy dishes and it was a super hit at the table. next time i am going to make it with ajinomoto as i believe it will add more taste.
