The real magic lies in the hot garlic sauce – a fiery concoction of aromatics like ginger, garlic, and chillies simmered in a base of soy sauce, vinegar, and a touch of cornstarch for thickening. Finally, the fried vegetable balls are tossed in this flavorful sauce, creating a perfect balance of sweet, savory, and spicy flavours.

This one is a real fiery Chinese starter, perfect to get your meal off to a hot start!

pro tips to make manchurian in hot garlic sauce: 1. Don't overdo the flour or cornstarch in the veggie mix. This can make the balls tough. 2. Ensure your oil is hot enough for frying. If the oil isn't hot enough, the balls will absorb too much oil and become greasy. Conversely, overly hot oil will burn the outside before the inside cooks through. 3. Add the Manchurian balls in the gravy just before servings and serve it immediately for the best flavours.

how to make vegetable balls

 

    1. To make Manchurian balls in hot garlic sauce recipe | Chinese style vegetable balls in spicy hot garlic sauce | Manchurian in hot and spicy sauce | in a deep bowl, add ½ cup grated cauliflower. Grated cauliflower adds moisture to the veggie mix, helping to bind the ingredients together and preventing the balls from becoming dry and crumbly. While cauliflower itself has a mild flavor, it readily absorbs the spices and seasonings you incorporate into the veggie mix, adding another layer of taste to the Manchurian balls.
    2. Add ½ cup finely chopped french beans. French beans have a subtle green bean flavor that adds another layer of complexity to the overall taste of the Manchurian balls.
    3. Add ½ cup grated carrot. Grated carrots provide some moisture to the balls, keeping them from drying out during frying. The texture of grated carrot offers a pleasant contrast to the crunch of other vegetables.
    4. Add ¼ cup plain flour (maida). The primary function of plain flour is to bind the chopped vegetables together. It acts like a glue, helping the shredded veggies form a cohesive mixture that can be shaped into balls.
    5. Add ¼ cup cornflour. Corn flour contributes to a crispy exterior on the Manchurian balls.
    6. Add 1 tsp ginger-garlic (adrak-lehsun) paste. Ginger garlic paste acts like a flavor foundation, adding complexity and essential savory notes that make your Manchurian balls taste delicious.
    7. Add ½ tsp green chilli paste.
    8. Add salt to taste.
    9. Add freshly ground black pepper (kalimirch) to taste. 
    10. Mix it very well to form a dough mixture.
    11. Divide the mixture into 10 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball.
    12. Heat the oil in a deep non-stick kadhai. 
    13. Deep-fry, a few balls at a time on a medium flame.
    14. Till they turn golden brown in colour from all the sides.
    15. Drain on an absorbent paper and keep aside.
how to make Manchurian in hot garlic sauce

 

    1. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a broad non-stick pan.
    2. Add 2 tbsp finely chopped garlic (lehsun). Garlic is a key aromatic ingredient. When sauteed in hot oil at the beginning of making the sauce, the finely chopped garlic releases its pungent, slightly sweet flavor that forms the base of the sauce.
    3. Add 2 tsp finely chopped ginger (adrak). Ginger, when chopped and sauteed, releases its warming, citrusy aroma. This fragrance is a key element in building the overall flavor profile of the Manchurian dish.
    4. Add ½ tsp finely chopped green chillies.
    5. Sauté on a high flame for a few seconds.
    6. Add ¼ cup finely chopped spring onions whites. Spring onion whites add a mild oniony flavor to the veggie mix. This subtle bite complements the other vegetables and enhances the overall savory profile of the Manchurian balls.
    7. Sauté on a high flame for a few seconds.
    8. Add 1½ tbsp schezwan sauce. Schezwan sauce packs a punch of Sichuan peppercorns, chili peppers, garlic, and other spices. It infuses the Manchurian balls and sauce with a complex savory, spicy, and numbing flavor profile.
    9. Add 1 tsp soy sauce.
    10. Add 2 tsp red chilli sauce. Beyond heat, some red chili sauces contain chilies with complex flavors that go beyond just spiciness.
    11. Add 1 tsp vinegar.
    12. Add 1 tbsp cornflour dissolved in 1/4 cup water.
    13. Mix well and cook on a medium flame for 1 to 2 minutes, while stirring occasionally.
    14. Add the manchurian balls.
    15. Add salt to taste.
    16. Add pepper to taste.
