These lovely tikkis are the best tikkis for the health conscious people. These are low in calories and high in iron and vegetarian too! I watched these being made on TV this morning and these were the special recipe of a weight management consultant! The best thing was the appearance of the tikkis once ready- I bet u you wont be able to say if its falafel or bran tikki! Good way to fool the little ones who love falafels to have something more nutritious and healthy! Ingredients:
2 tablespoons lauki, boiled and mashed |
1/2 cup cauliflower, boiled and mashed |
2 tablespoons spinach, blanched and mashed |
1 teaspoon coriander leaves, chopped |
1 tablespoon potato, boiled and mashed |
1 cup wheat bran (choker) |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 pinch white pepper powder |
1 teaspoon oil, to fry |
Directions:
1. Put all the vegetables, salt and white pepper powder in a bowl.
2. Mix well with your hand.
3. Put a small portion of this on your palm and shape into a thin and small tikki (round).
4. Likewise, repeat for remaining mixture.
5. Pour 1 tsp oil on a flat non-stick griddle (tawa).
6. Put tikkis on this and lightly fry on both sides.
7. Serve with ketchup and have without worry as 1 tikki is not more than 45 calories as compared to a standard size potato tikki which is 100 calories!
