    many ingredents are disappear what should have been included like spring onions peas green paper(shimla mirch) chillie sauce and ajinomoto 2nd thing is that how can we make the bolls of carrots and cabbage only add the dry maida and salt?

    Suds

    It gives a tangy flavor if a bit of white vinegar is added to the sauce

    I tried this recipe, it was ok sort of. but i must say, it ws not as good as we have outside in the restaurant. So, it was not a perfect recipe for manchurian.Also, you should add spring onion instead of onion.

    Add 2 small tomatoes, one tbs tomato sauce, chutki ajinomoto for more flavor !

    Shouldn't Ajinomoto(MSG) be added to this ???

    puja

    Please tell is there no use of tomato or tomato sauce. Won't it be bland without any tangy tomatoes
