  8. Heat a non stick kadhai with ample amount of oil for deep frying.
  9. Add a little sugar in the urad dal and rice batter (topu pindi).
  10. Make small balls out of the steamed and cooked mixture [poornam] and then dip each ball in the urad and rice batter and carefully deep fry.
  11. Fry the balls until they reach a golden brown colour. The outer layer should be crispy.
  12. Put the balls on a paper napkin for a while so that the excess oil is absorbed. serve them and these can be stored in an air tight container.
