Filling

  1. Place the onions, peppers, ginger, chillies, and garlic cloves into the jug of a blender, and blend to a smooth paste.

  2. Using the dough hook or flat beater, mix for 2 minutes.
  3. Add salt, and knead for 10 minutes or until obtaining a smooth homogeneous dough.

  9. In the center of each circle, place 1 teaspoon of filling, and fold it into the shape of a half moon.
  10. Seal the edges well, either with a fork or by crimping between the thumb and forefinger.
  11. In a large deep pan, heat a large amount of vegetable oil and bring it to 350 F (170 ° C).
  12. Place the panada in the hot oil, and fry until golden brown.
