Spinach cheese balls with Mediterranean chickpea salad instructions

Firstly, let's have a look at the ingredients that we have to use for spinach cheese balls and Mediterranean chickpea salad and dressing..
For chickpea salad, soak 2 cups of chickpea overnight or for 8 hours. And then pressure cook it for 15-20 minutes. Well cooked chickpea will look like this!.
To make Salad: In a large bowl, take boiled chickpeas, cucumber, bell pepper, capsicum, onion, olives and tofu. Toss all of them together. And season with salt and black pepper..
To make dressing: In a jar with lid, take olive oil, vinegar, lemon, lemon juice, cilantro and red chilli flakes. Shake it all well until it gets emulsified. And then add salt and pepper to this..
Pour this dressing over salad. And mix it nicely. Refrigerate it for half an hour and your salad is ready to be served!.
For spinach cheese balls, heat 2 tsp oil in a pan and saute ginger garlic paste. And then add green chillies and onion..
Now add palak and saute till it shrinks..
Cool down the mixture and transfer it to a blender..
Add little water as required and blend it to a smooth paste..
Transfer this puree into a large mixing bowl. Add breadcrumbs, corn starch and salt..
Combine well to a nice dough..
Now cut the cheese cubes into smaller ones. Like I divided here one into four. Now grease your hands with oil and take a ball sized dough. Flatten by pressing it gently. And then place a cheese cube in the center and fold the edges together..
Seal it well and make a crack free ball. Because if there would be any crack, the cheese would melt and create mess while baking..
Make all the balls like this and preheat the oven at 250° F for 10 mins..
Now bake it in your OTG or convection oven at 180° for 20 minutes. Or you can also deep fry them..
And your spinach cheese balls are ready to be served!.
You can serve these cheese balls with tomato ketchup too only. But I love accompanying it with the salad. So here is my dish ready to be served..
