Recipe Notes

(1)..Leaving boiled potatoes in water for longer will result in potatoes absorbing high amount of moisture,  so make sure you remove the potatoes immediately after boiling, by rinsing pressure cooker in cold water to release the pressure quickly.

(2).. Don’t drop the veggie balls in to oil if oil is not hot enough otherwise the balls will break.
