Make lemon sized balls with potato stuffing.
Trim the brown edges of the bread slices, dip them lightly in a bowl with water, squeeze out the excess water by pressing the bread slice between your palms.
If you are not sure about how much you are supposed to dip the bread slices in water, keep the slice on a plate and sprinkle water over it on both sides till the slice gets moist. Then press the slice between your palms.

Heat oil for deep frying, dip these balls in besan batter and deep fry on medium heat till crisp and golden.
