Drain and wash. Put with the rest of the ingredients in a food processor, and blend till you get a soft dough like mixture. Remove and keep in the fridge for 1 hour before use. Divide and shape the mixture into small balls, the size of a wallnut. Flatten with your hand, then deep fry in hot oil till golden brown.
