  • In a separate pan, heat oil over medium heat and add chopped garlic and ginger. Sauté till the raw smell fades away. Now add chopped onion and bell peppers to it and sauté again for 4-5 minutes.
  • Add soy sauce, chilli sauce, vinegar, salt, pepper powder and brown sugar and mix everything well. Now add Manchurian balls to it and mix so that the balls are well coated with sauces.
  • Spread sesame seeds on top and switch off the heat.
  • Transfer in a serving bowl and serve hot. Enjoy it with either veg fried rice or veg Hakka noodles.

Notes

  • Remember to squeeze extra water from grated cabbage before making dough, otherwise the dough will be runny.
  • Always fry the manchurian balls on medium heat so that they are cooked from inside too.
  • You can finely chop the purple cabbage instead of grating.
  • Always grate/chop cabbage near to the time of making balls. Don’t leave it for too long otherwise it will release lots of water.
  • Adjust the amount of all purpose flour and cornflour to make a soft dough.
