5. Make them in round balls.
6. Mix flour with about 4 tablespoons of water and mix well until batter is smooth.
7. Heat the oil in a frying pan on medium high heat.
8. The frying pan should have at least 1 1/2 inch of oil. To check if the oil is ready, just put one small piece of mix in the oil, it should come up right away but not change color.
9. Dip the paneer balls in the batter one at a time and slowly drop into the frying pan. You can also roll them in dry all purpose flour once instead of batter.
10. Turn them occasionally. Fry koftas until golden-brown all around.
