Notes

  • The amount of spices added is according to my taste you always can reduce accordingly.
  • If you have some cornflakes you can garnish at the end.
  • Used Kashmiri red chilli for colour.
  • Don’t add more water while making the dough it should be pakoda consistency.
  • You can use all cabbage alone or mushroom alone even half mushroom and cabbage as I have used.
