Preparation:
Boil the Beef:
In a pressure cooker, add the beef, turmeric powder, Kashmiri chili powder, black pepper powder, and salt.Mix the spices well with the beef using your hands.Add ½ cup of water to the cooker.Close the lid and cook for approximately 6 whistles, or until the beef is well-cooked and tender.While the beef is cooking, in a mixing bowl, combine the finely chopped onions, ginger, sliced green chilies, chopped coriander leaves, chopped curry leaves, and gram flour. Add salt to taste.Crack and add one egg to the mixture. Mix everything well with your hands until all the ingredients are evenly combined. For extra crispiness, add 1 tablespoon of rice flour to the mixture and mix again. Set the mixture aside to rest for 10 minutes.Once the beef is cooked, transfer it to a mixer jar.
Pulse or grind the beef until it is coarsely shredded.The shredded beef should have a texture as shown in the video around.Add the shredded beef to the vegetable and binding mixture in batches.Mix everything thoroughly until the shredded beef is well incorporated with the vegetable mixture.For a richer color, you can add 1 teaspoon of Kashmiri chili powder at this stage and mix well.Heat coconut oil in a pan for frying. Ensure there is enough oil to deep-fry the balls. Wait until the oil is nicely hot.Reduce the flame to low.Take small portions of the beef mixture and shape them into small balls as shown in the video around.Gently drop the beef balls into the hot oil. Fry the balls on a low flame until they turn a nice golden brown color on both sides.Once they are evenly browned and cooked, remove them from the oil using a slotted spoon and drain them on a paper towel to remove excess oil.
