ABOUT Poha Cutlet RECIPE

These poha (Beaten rice) cutlets are an ideal tea-time snack. They can also be served as appetizers along with some green chutney or ketchup. They are very easy to make and very delicious at the same time. For a healthier version I have used brown poha

Ingredients Serving: 3

1 1/2 cups poha (beaten rice)
1 potato, boiled & mashed
2 tbsp. fried onions
1" ginger, grated
2 green chilies, chopped
2-3 tbsp. coriander leaves, chopped
2 tbsp. fresh grated coconut
2 tbsp. fried peanuts, coarsely ground
salt to taste
1/4 tsp turmeric powder
1/2 tsp. garam masala powder
1 tbsp. maida
1 cup sooji / semolina
oil to deep fry

Instructions

Wash the poha for a few seconds and keep aside for 10 minutes to become soft. Mix the maida with some water to make a batter. Keep aside.
To the poha add all the other ingredients (except maida, sooji & oil) and knead into a dough.
Make into desired shapes and transfer on a plate. Dip them one by one in the batter and coat with the sooji. Arrange all on a plate.
Heat oil in a pan / kadai and deep fry them on a medium flame few at a time for 2-3 minutes. Drain on a kitchen towel and serve with green chutney / ketchup / red chili sauce.
