Curd Croquettes

I love these curd croquettes more than anything else in the world as an appetiser with my beer 🍻 

I have been thinking to try these at home and finally got at it. 
Today was one of those days when B, came back home earlier than usual and was In the mood for some beer.So I made these with half an hour and then I quickly took a picture and got on with siping and munching 😍

Sometimes its okay to let loose and enjoy few calories, After all Food makes us happy !!

Preparation Time: 30 minutes 

Cooking Time: 10 minutes

Serves: 3-4 

Ingredients :

1 sliced white bread loaf 
1 cup hung curd
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 cup finely chopped green capsicum
3-4 finely chopped green chilly
1 tsp salt

1 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp paprika / peri peri chilly
parsley / coriander leaves for garnishing
2 tbsp maida 
2 tbsp water
1/2 litre oil to deep fry

Method :

1) In a separate bowl add hung curd, onion, capsicum, salt, pepper, red chilly and green chilly and mix it well. Refrigerate it.

2) In a small bowl add maida and water. The consistency of the glue should be thick and creamy and not at all runny. It will be used to bind the corners.

3) Now chop off all 4 corners of the bread slices using  sharp knife without breaking the crumbs.

4) Using a rolling pin flatten out a single slice of bread pressing the corners properly. make sure you don't over do it and break the corners. 

5) Take the curd mix out and add 1 tsp of it on one side leaving  bit of corners and brush the glue on all three sides and the remaining edges of mix.

6) Roll it into a roll and softly press it on the edges and keep it upside down so it can stick properly. If need be then add more glue to it. 

7) Repeat steps 4-5-6 until all the bread slices are over or how many ever you would like to make.

8) Heat oil in a deep dish until its super hot and now turn the flame to medium and add 2-3 croquettes. fry them till golden brown.

9) Serve these with leftover curd mix or ketchup / Mayo.

Keep cooking, Keep Loving :)
