Ingredients

 Russet potatoes2 Medium
 Paneer1 Cup (16 tbs)
 Salt1 Teaspoon (Adjust To Taste)
 Finely chopped jalapeno1 (Hari Mirch)
 Black pepper1⁄4 Teaspoon
 All purpose flour3 Tablespoon, maida, plain flour
 Water5 Tablespoon
 Oil2 Cup (32 tbs) (For Frying)

Directions

Mix flour and water together and make a thin, smooth batter and keep aside.
Peel the skin off the potatoes and shred them in a grater or food processor.
In a pan boil the water. After it comes to boil put the shredded potatoes in the water and let it boil for two to three minutes until they are just tender. Note: don’t over cook the potatoes they will become mushy, should be able to feel the shredded potatoes
Once cooked, drain the water and pour some cold water over the potatoes.
Gently squeeze the excess water out of the potatoes, again making sure to not make the shredded potatoes mushy.
Next mix shredded potatoes, mashed paneer, and jalapeno pepper, and salt together
Divide the potato mixture in about 24 equal parts and form them into bullet shape. Keep aside.
Heat the oil in a frying pan on medium high heat.
The frying pan should have at least 1 ½ inch of oil. To check if the oil is ready, put one small piece of mix in the oil, it should sizzle and come up right away.
Dip the potato balls in the batter one at a time and slowly drop into the frying pan.
Turn them occasionally. Fry tots until golden-brown all around.
Remove them with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel.
Serve them hot with your choice of tomato ketchup or coriander (hari) chutney or tamarind (imli) chutney. They also taste great as is.
