  1. I think the deep frying ruins this. I was reluctant but went ahead anyway, and all the grease and extra calories is just not worth the taste in the end. It was also very bland with just the overpowering taste of yoghurt, perhaps some cumin or coriander powder would have picked up the flavour? I would suggest these changes along with omitting the deep frying. Sorry for the low review but my family could just not finish this one.
