  • Drain it on a kitchen towel.

Serve it warm with tomato ketchup or mint chutney.
  • The  original recipe is with the soya granules if you are using soya granules use 1/2cup.
  • The taste of the croquettes is nice if it is deep fried but it can be shallow fried.The taste will be slightly different.
  • Mash the corn slightly,to prevent popping and the green chillies can be substituted with the red chilly powder.
  • Maintain the temperature in a medium flame otherwise the croquettes will separate.
  • Do a trial fry if it is separated then add little more of all purpose flour and mix it well or roll the croquettes in all purpose flour.
