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.

CHATPATE CHOLE

Hello frnds,

Welcome back, its so nice to come back after one week. busy schedule didn't let me post anything. I know i promised to post a baking recipe, but somehow didn't got time to do that, will post it soon.
So who says sunday is a holiday, i think a working woman like me, sunday is a day when you have more work then others days of the week.

Yesterday some guests arrived and i was supposed to make a elaborated meal for them. and i did,
i cant tell you at the end of the day, how tired i was. But praises from guests for food made my day. it feels nice when somebody enjoys food made by you. i think its a very nice way to show your love to someone.
So i made chatpate chole, matar paneer, boondi raita, salad, jeera rice, sookhi bhindi and chapati.
I have taken the pictures in hurry as everybody was waiting for lunch.

So here goes the recipee for chatpate chole:--

Ingradients:-
White Chana(chole) -  about 4 cups
Onion                        - 4-5 medium
tomato                       - 4-5 medium
Sookha Dhania          - 2 tsp (whole) crushed
Ginger                       - 2 inch piece
Grlic                          - 8-10 pods
Green chilly              - 2-3
Red Chilly                - 1 tsp
Toamto Puree           - 2 tbsp
curry patta                - 4-5 leaves
Cumin seeds             - 1 tsp
Salt                           - 4 tsp (as per taste)
Amchoor Powder     - 2tsp

Recipe:- 

Soak white chana in 10 cups of water for 5-6 hours. (I soaked them at night as it saves fuel)  and then boil them with sufficient water. It will double in quantity.

Take onion, chilly, ginger, garlic

Ingradients-puree them and puree tomato separate

Heat 3 tbsp oil

throw cumin seeds and crushed sookha dhania

 after 2-3 seconds add pureed onion mix

let it brown

add tomato puree

 mix well

 add all spices

 add tomato puree

 mix well

cover and let it simmer for 2-3 min, oil will be saperated

 Now add 3-4 cups hot water (you can use water from boiled chana if any)

cover and Let it simmer for 5-10 minutes

oil will be separeted

 leave one cup chana in the bowl

 and add all else in the greavy

Now mash the chana with a ladle

add that also in the greavy

Now cover it and let it simmer for 10-15 min.

Ready to serve

ENJOYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Its a greavy based chana so you can serve it with chapati or rice.

Notes:-

1. You can increase the quantity to amchoor and chilly powder to make it more spicy.

2. Omit tomato puree or decrease the quantity of amchoor if you want to make it simple greacy chana.

3. If you are making chole bhature then use less water and make it bit dry.
