Having any leftover dhokla by any chance? Then go ahead and dish out these yummy snacks / appetizers. This is exactly what I did. I combined few dhoklas with some paneer (both mashed), handful of coriander leaves, chopped ginger, chopped green chilies and few other basic seasonings to make these gorgeous looking and healthy small bites.
I also added some flax seeds and sesame seeds, but it is purely optional. You can enjoy these tikkis as an appetizer with any homemade chutney / sauce or as a tea time snack. You can also prepare them in advance and freeze, to be fried at the time of serving.
- 8-10 dhokla pieces, mashed
- 100 gms. paneer, mashed
- 1 tsp. ginger, grated
- 1-2 green chilies, chopped
- 1 tbsp. lemon juice
- handful of coriander leaves, chopped
- salt to taste
- 1/2 tsp. turmeric powder
- pinch of baking soda
- 1 tsp roasted cumin powder
- 1 tsp. garam masala powder
- 1/2 tsp. red chili flakes
- 1 tsp. flax seeds
- 1 tsp. sesame seeds
- 2-3 tbsp. oil to shallow fry
Combine all the ingredients (except oil) into a dough. Sprinkle some water if it is dry.
Wet your hands and make round tikkis out of it. Refrigerate for some time.
Heat oil in a pan / tawa and shallow fry the tikkis, in batches, till golden brown on both sides.
Drain on a kitchen towel and serve them hot with tomato sauce or green chutney.
