Blend coarsely all ingredients except coriander leaves and oil. Mix in coriander leaves. Whisk the batter with hands until it looks a bit fluffy (alternatively add a pinch of soda but that soaks more oil).
Heat oil on medium flame. Fry them in small balls until they turn golden brown and crisp. Ensure that the oil doesn’t smoke. Keep it on medium flame for even cooking.
