To make this paneer potato balls, all you need is some paneer and boiled potato. The rest of the ingredients are easily available in any kitchen pantry. Along with cornflour, I have used some rice flour to this for the extra crunch. Adjust the spices as per your tastebuds. If making these for kids you can skip green chili.

Serve these paneer potato balls with a hot cup of tea or with some green chutney and tomato ketchup. Either way, it will win everyone's heart.
