For making Aloo chop:
5 medium potatoes boiled and mashed
1 medium onion chopped finely
1″ pc grated ginger
4 green chili chopped
1/4 tsp turmeric powder
1/2 tbsp mustard seeds
1 tbsp fresh coriander leaves chopped finely
salt to taste
For the batter:
4 or 5 tbsp gram flour ( besan)
1/2 tsp carrom seeds (ajwain)
1/2 tsp turmeric powder
salt to taste
1/2 cup water
Oil for deep frying (preferably mustard oil)
Method:
- Heat 1 tbsp oil in a non stick pan (I prefer mustard oil to get the authentic taste).
- Add mustard seeds, let it brown and splutter, add the grated onion, ginger and chopped green chili and fry till the raw smell goes off.
- Add the mashed potato, chopped coriander and salt. Mix on a low flame. Keep aside and let it cool.
- Prepare the batter by adding all the ingredients said above and mix well so that no lumps remain.
- Be sure to make the batter a little thick so that it coats the stuffing nicely.
- Heat the oil for deep frying. Divide the potato mixture into equal lemon sized balls and flatten them with your palm.
- Dip each flattened piece in the batter and deep fry until golden brown. Make sure you have 1 inch of oil for deep frying in the pan.
- Serve hot with chutney or ketchup.
Tip: You may prefer not to do Step 3 above depending upon your choice. I prefer to follow the above said method so that there is a tinge of fried taste to the mashed potatoes.

Some interesting and intelligent content you have here on your site. I have several wordpress sites and like your theme. I do notice that you are not monetising your traffic to its maximum which is what I used to do until someone pointed out to me that you can actually earn yourself some decent amounts to help pay your hosting and domain fees etc. Looking at your Alexa rankings I can see you obtain some decent traffic which for very little work could help you out. I use this WordPress Plugin which effectively turns words and phrases in all (or just some if you like) your content, making contexual links which your visitors will click upon. Take a look at it and see what I mean, I easily clear my hosting and other fees each month using this. Hope that helps you out – we fellow wordpress bloggers have to stick together!

Hey I just wanted to let you know, I really like the written material on your site. But I am using Firefox on a machine running version 9.10 of Ubuntu and the look and feel aren’t quite right. Not a big deal, I can still essentially read the articles and look for for information, but just wanted to inform you about that. The navigation bar is kind of challenging to use with the config I’m running. Keep up the superb work!
