I did not add the extra pinch of baking soda when I first started making this recipe 10 years ago; my meatballs used to come out hard but that pinch of baking soda makes a big difference in order to have soft Keemay Ki Goliyaan.

In a fry pan on medium heat, you add the whole spices (such as coriander seeds, cumin seeds, mustard seeds, whatever the recipe ask for.) and keep stirring it for 2 minutes. You will know when the dry roasting is done it will give you unique aroma.
