Gatte can break for two main reasons: 1) The dough was too soft or sticky, likely due to too much moisture (curd/water). Add a bit more besan to get a firm dough. 2) You added them to water that wasn't at a rolling boil, causing them to sit at the bottom and disintegrate.
Yes, you can boil and slice the gatte a day in advance. Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. When you're ready to eat, simply prepare the masala and fry them as per the instructions.
Store any leftover Chicken Gatte Fry in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a pan or microwave until hot before serving.
While boiling is the traditional method that gives a soft texture, you can try air-frying the sliced gatte for a crispier result. Brush them with oil and air-fry at 180°C (350°F) for 8-10 minutes before adding to the masala.
