VEGETABLE TIKKI

Ingredients

1 cup Boiled potatoes
½ cup boiled peas
½ cup boiled carrots
1 teaspoon garam masala powder
Salt to taste
2 tablespoon  oil
½ teaspoon turmeric powder
½ teaspoon red chilli powder
2 slices of bread

Mash the boiled potatoes and mix with all other ingredients except oil and bread.


Wet the bread with water, squeeze out all the water and add to the mix of vegetables dough.

Now make medium size balls and flatten them like vada. Now you have two options- The first one is to deep fry the cutlets by rolling them in bread crumbs . But this consumes more oil.

The second method and the way I did these is- Just place them on the chapati tava, add a few drops of oil and when it is golden brown, turn and cook the other side as well.

Serve Hot with sweet chutney or sauce.
