PPP/Pausthik Palak Patties/ Healthy Spinach Patties


I make these vegetable cutlets/patties many many times, and use them as evening snack with green chutney, they taste equally good as filling between Bombay Grill Sandwich or on Whole Wheat Wraps. You can mix and match any filling with basic potatoes/tofu or paneer and add in any healthy stuff like flax seed powder or boiled spinach puree, which is what I added here. I had flax seed flour on hand, so used that. I am trying to adapt our taste buds to Tofu, but still not quite there.


You will need;

2 Boiled Potatoes, Peeled and mashed and kept aside
1 Cup mixture of boiled spinach puree, try to remove the water as much as possible
1/2 peas, boiled corn, boiled beetroot, cauliflower and capsicum, all chopped into really small pieces--OPTIONAL.--use whatever you have on hand or omit it altogether.
1 tbspn Ginger and Garlic paste
2 tspn flax seed powder/flour
1 tsp red chilli powder
1 tsp chat masala (-- follow the link for a chat masala rec.)
1 tsp cumin powder
1 tsp coriander powder
Salt to taste,
1tsp Lemon juice or if you like add 1 tsp Amchur or dry mango powder
Oil for Shallow frying in a pan


Take the mashed potatoes in a wide bowl, add  the 1 cup of spinach puree and 1/2 Cup mixture of boiled peas, boiled corn, boiled beetroot, cauliflower and capsicum, all chopped into really small pieces, mix well. To this mix add the ginger garlic paste, cumin powder some coriander powder, chat masala, red chilli powder, salt and lemon juice (or dry amchur powder if you like) and made small cutlets or tikki's.. and shallow fry in oil.

This is not very difficult and anyone can cook. Please check out Ayeesha Anyone Can Cook event, where my own Chatpate Makhane rec got featured. Thanks Ayeesha for selecting my entry.

I am sending my PPP/Pausthik Palak Pattie to Anyone Can Cook event again.

Hope you make some these very soon and watch out for my WWW(Whole Wheat Wraps) post coming soon.

Love Ash.

Oh nice! I like all kinds of patties! I agree, tofu is , well, not quite appetizing, but mash it ( really mash it!) and add it in, u won't notice it quite so much :)
