Nutritious Cutlet with Chickpea (white chana) and Cottage Cheese(Paneer)

Chana Paneer Tikki/

Cutlet with White Chickpea and Cottage Cheese

Hi Friends,

By the time i have started my blog i have started experiment with food, earlier i was very afraid of trying anything new. In my aloo tikki post you can see i use to make only simple tikkies. But now i have started making different and more healthier version of tikkies/cutlets. Earlier i have posted my Rajma Paneer Tikki which was a huge hit in my house. Now i have tried tikki with white chana and paneer which again came out good.

Kids were asking for burger. i wanted to fill it with more healthier tikki. So i made it with aloo, paneer and white chana and it came out so scrumptious. I was very happy to see my kids relishing it. 

Ingredients:-

Potato               - 2 boiled

White Chana    - 1 cup boiled 

Paneer              - 1 cup crumbled

Coriander pdr   - 1 tsp

Chilly pdr         - 1/2 tsp

Salt                   - 1 tsp

Sooji/Rava       - 2 tbsp

Method:-

Take your ingredients

Crush or pulse white chana

Mash boiled potato 

Add crumbled cheese

Add all spices

Shape them as your desired shape

Take rava in a plate 

Take one tikki and cover it with sooji/rava

Now heat a pan and drizzle some oil on it and place tikkies to bake

Now turn and bake from other side 

All Baked

DONE DONE DONE

SERVE AS PER YOUR WISH

 YUMMYYYYYYYYY

Notes:-

1. You can skip potato or paneer in this. But for healthier version do not skip anything.
2. Add your favorite spices.
3. You can deep fry them, but i always prefer baking with little oil.
4. Use for chats/ burger/sandwich or anything you like.
5. You can simply serve it with sauce.

HOPE YOU WILL LIKE IT

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.

Ingredients:-

For Tikki/Cutlet

Kidney Bean/Rajma      - 1-1/2 cup boiled

Potato                            - 1-1/2 medium, Boiled

Amchoor Pdr                - 1/2 tsp  (optional)

Salt                                - as per your taste

For Paste

APF Flour/Cornflour  - 1 tbsp

Water                          - 1-2 tbsp (as required) 

Recipe:- 

Keep your ingredients ready

Mash beans and potato completely

Add grated/Mashed paneer

Add coriander and all spices

Now take out a lemon size ball out of the mix(bit bigger)

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.
