Rinse and place in a food processor along with the other ingredients, except oil. Process to a coarse puree. Let the paste sit for an hour. Heat enough oil for deep-frying in a large skillet or deep fryer. With wet hands, shape the paste into balls 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Flatten the balls into patties and deep fry until golden brown.
