Ingredients
  • 2 cups poha, washed and soaked in water for 15 minutes
  • 1 tbsp ginger, finely chopped
  • 1-2 green chillies, finely chopped
  • ½ tsp garam masala
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • Salt, to taste
  • 2 tbsp Curry leaves (could also use cilantro or mint instead)
  • White Poppy seeds (khus khus) to coat or use cornmeal
  • 4 tbsp oil to shallow fry
Instructions
  1. Wash the poha and let soak for 15 minutes.
  2. Drain the water well, and squeeze the poha between your hands to ensure the water is squeezed out. Or use a nut milk bag like I did.
  3. In a bowl, add the ginger, green chillies, lemon juice, salt, garam masala, curry leaves and mix well. (You can add peas, peanuts, cilantro or mint too)
  4. Shape into cutlets (about 2 inch in diameter).
  5. Spread the khus khus or cornmeal on a plate and coat the cutlets in the cornmeal.
  6. Shallow fry in 4 tbsp oil on medium heat till golden brown on both sides.
  7. Serve with some mint chutney.
