👨‍🍳 作り方

1. 1

   Wash the yellow split peas and soak them in cold water for at least 3 hours. Drain thoroughly.

2. 2

   In a blender or food processor, pulse the drained split peas until they have a coarse, sandy texture. Do not over-process into a paste.

3. 3

   Transfer the pulsed split peas to a mixing bowl. Add the chopped green chilies, spring onions, coriander, diced brown onion, baking powder, ground cumin, and salt. Mix thoroughly to combine.

4. 4

   Form the mixture into small balls, flattening them slightly. Ensure the mixture holds its shape.

5. 5

   Heat enough vegetable oil in a deep pan or wok over medium-high heat for deep frying. The oil should be hot but not smoking.

6. 6

   Carefully add the gato piman balls to the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry in batches if necessary.

7. 7

   Fry for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are golden brown and crispy on all sides. The outside should be cooked before the inside is overcooked.

8. 8

   Remove the fried gato piman with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve hot.
