  4. Now, take out the boiled chickpeas for the pressure cooker. Drain the water and rub the chickpeas with a clean cloth to absorb the extra water. The more you absorb the water, the less you need to mix all purpose flour. The dumplings will become super soft this way.
  5. Make a fine paste of the boiled chickpeas. The paste will be thick and tight and that is ok.
  6. Add all purpose flour and salt with the chickpea paste (as mentioned in "For The Dumpling Dough" section) and knead a smooth dough.

  9. Now, stuff them with coconut stuffing and seal the edges to make half moon shaped dumplings. If possible, make design on the edges by curving them with your fingers.
  10. Once the dumplings are ready, keep them aside.
  11. In a pan. heat sufficient oil for deep frying. Pour the dumplings and deep fry till they turn golden brown.
