Aloo palak Kofta (Potato And Spinach Dumplings)

Aloo Palak Kofta or Potato spinach dumplings This recipe I was inspired by most popular German potato dumplings. In German cuisine this potato dumplings are made with mashed potato stuffed with meat and served with bread or meat. Some times they make this potato dumplings as a dessert where the mashed potato is stuffed with fruits. Here I have changed that typical German potato dumplings in to Indian flavor and in German cuisine they are simmered in a soup or in plain boiling water, Here I deep fried them
                                                                               When I choose this theme for BM I don't have any idea what to make. Only one thing I got in my mind is masala vada pulusu or urundai kuzhambu. I made it for my first day post then for next day post I googled a lot and landed in this German dumplings recipe. But hubby doesn't like boiled potato, then I decided to deep fry those potato dumplings with Indian flavors in it. when I tasted them.. aloo kofta!!! ha haa finely I made aloo koftas. Try to make some thing different and landed in aloo koftas ?!!.. I didn't add any bread crumbs or bread to this potato mixture for binding. For a difference I have added 2 tab sp of gulab jamoon mix, that gave a good color and a small different taste. So lets check how I made them.. I know most of the people like potato in their meal because of that potato is a universal vegetable.
