6. Mix tomato ketchup, soy sauce, salt, chili pdr, corn flour altogether in a bowl for manchurian. Add required water for mixing. Make sure it has no lumps. Corn flour gives thick manchurian gravy . So add it moderately. If you add more flour, gravy will be like rice drink or ragi drink ( koozh ). Add very little salt for this manchurian gravy. Because we have already added salt with chicken pieces. SEE VIDEO
