    1 sm Beet; grated
    1/2 c Oil

    Put tomatoes through a blender and set aside. Grate carrots and beet;
    peel and mash potatoes. Add garam masala, minced onion, chopped

    Heat a little of the oil in which the balls have been fried in a
    separate pan and saute the onions. Add the cumin, turmeric, salt,

    few minutes. About 10 minutes before serving, slip the vegetable
    balls gently into the gravy and sprinkle with fresh cilantro leaves.
