Mochar Chop... 

Ingredients- 

Banana Flower : 1/2 cup, finely chopped

Boiled Potato : 2-3

Raisin (Kishmish) : 1/4 cup

Chopped Coconut : 1/4 cup

Peanut : 2-3 tbsp                                       

Boiled Chola : a handful

Red Chilli powder : 1 tsp

Black Pepper powder : 1 tsp

Besan (Gram Flour) : 2 cups

Kalonji : 1tsp 

Water : 1/3 cup

Salt to taste

Oil for deep frying (about 2-3 cups)

Method- 

Peel the potatoes and smash them and make a smooth dough of it.

Dry roast the peanut on medium flame. Be careful not to burn it.

Add the stir-fried banana flower into the mashed potato. Add raisin, boiled chola, chopped coconut, roasted peanut, red chilli powder and black pepper powder and make a smooth dough. Don’t add water, it should be a bit dry. Otherwise the chops won’t be able to hold the shape. Make a batter of besan, kalonji, salt and water.

Take a tbsp of the dough in your palm and shape it according to your wish. Try to make it neat. Otherwise it will break apart in the oil while frying. Follow the same with rest of the dough.

Heat oil in a wok on medium flame. Dunk a small amount of the dough to check the temperature of the oil. If it sizzles immediately it is the correct temperature and turn the flame to medium-low. If it stays at the bottom the oil is not hot enough.When the oil is hot enough to fry the chops, dip the chops in the besan batter

and put 2-3 chops in the hot oil at a time and fry them till golden brown. Remove them with a slotted spoon and arrange on a paper towel to absorb excess oil.

Serve hot with Kasundi or with your favourite dip or sauce.
