Instructions
 

Prepare the Cabbage Fritters

  • First, in a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, grated carrot, cornflour, all-purpose flour, salt, ginger paste, and chili powder.
  • Mix well, then squeeze out excess water from the cabbage mixture. Gradually add 2 tablespoons of water to form a soft dough.
  • Roll the dough into small balls. Heat oil in a deep pan or wok for deep frying.
  • Deep fry the cabbage balls until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove them and drain on paper towels.

Make the Sauce

  • Heat oil in a wok or large pan. Add finely chopped green chili and sauté briefly.
  • Add the cubed bell pepper and sauté until slightly softened.
  • Now add the chili sauce, soy sauce, vinegar, tomato ketchup, salt, and black pepper.
  • Stir-fry on high heat for a minute until the sauce thickens slightly.
  • Add the fried cabbage balls and toss gently to coat them evenly in the sauce.
  • Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro and serve immediately.

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips for the Best Dry Cabbage Manchurian

  • For extra crispy fritters, ensure the cabbage is well-squeezed to remove excess moisture.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when deep frying the cabbage balls. Fry in batches to ensure even browning and crispiness.
  • Adjust the amount of chili powder and chili sauce to control the level of spiciness according to your preference.
  • For a richer flavor, you can add a teaspoon of sesame oil to the sauce.
