Healthy Rajma,Paneer Tikki/ Kidney Bean Cottage Cheese Cutlet

NUTRITIOUS KIDNEY BEAN, CHEESE CUTLET/ POSHTIK RAJMA PANEER TIKKI
Hi Friends,
Tikki/Cutlet a very famous chat food. I never made tikki at home but couple of months back when my kids tasted McD's Burger they kept on asking for it. Then i started making simple aloo tikki at home for burger. You can see my Simple Aloo tikki and Burger in my blog. But i always craved for more healthier version, i tried once and failed(i did a very big and foolish mistake). I never tried again. Then I saw so many bean/cheese/veg tikki/cutlet recipes (and realized my mistake i did last time). I don't know why i always felt that kidney bean and Garbanzo Bean tikki/cutlet would be very tasty as well as healthy. 
This time i gathered courage and determined to try my hand on it. Few days back i soaked kidney Bean/ Rajma for gravy then i increased the quantity to make some cutlets. I can't tell you how tasty it was. I was so happy to see my kids devouring it. One thing i regret is my hubby was not at home when i made this. I am fully sure that he will give a thumps up to this scrumptious tikki. Will make next time for you dear. Now i have gathered enough courage to try White Chana/Garbanzo Bean Tikki. Enjoy it any time, I think between Monsson Showers is best time. I urge all of you to try this and see everyone enjoying.

Notes:-
  1. You can add any of your favorite veggie in this, though its not required. Its perfect. It was so yummy with these three main ingredients.
  2. You can add any of your favorite masala/spice in it.
  3. Tikki is fit for burgers,chats or any other way you want to use it. Its very delicious on its own.
  4. My kids ate 3-4 on the spot and for left ones they asked to roll it in parantha, it was also awesome that way.
HOPE YOU WILL LIKE IT

LOVE
