Yam Keema Cola Urundai

Cooked Yam and Keema deepfried with spices

Recipe by christy gerald of Dubai, AE

Vegetarians can try this dish with Yam alone(as Yam Cola Urundai-which tastes even better) without adding Keema and thereby reduing the spices. You can try this dish when u have left over keema by adding mashed Yam. Requires 20 mins cooking time.
