- Transfer to a blender and make a paste of them.
- Make them into 12 equal sized balls and refrigerate them for an hour.

Tip: Although I have not mentioned all purpose flour (maida), you may make maida batter and dip and roll over breadcrumb powder. (for vegetarians who want to avoid egg)
- Put them on a paper or towel and then transfer to the microwave oven.
- Cook for 5 minutes on high temperature, flip and further cook for 5 more minutes.

Deep fry version:
- It is simple to understand, instead of microwave cooking, we can deep fry them until they are cooked and attain golden crust.
- We need to deep fry them at medium heat or else they might not cook from inside.
Pan bake:
- In this scenario, we put a little oil on the pan and saute on low heat.
- Whatever the process you implement, veg croquettes taste great when having with tea or as an evening snack.
