LEFT OVER DAL CUTLET

Hi all, So I had some leftover Dal which I had to finish as there was a Puja the next day and we cannot use leftovers on the day. I went online and browsed through various ideas and in the end, came up with this recipe. Thankfully, it was a big hit with everyone and worked well as a perfect evening snack.

INGREDIENTS

LEFTOVER DAL: 1 CUP
POTATO BOILED AND MASHED: 1 MEDIUM

ALL PURPOSE FLOUR: 1/2 CUP
RICE FLOUR: 1/2 CUP
GINGER_GARLIC: 2 TSP CHOPPED
JEERA_DHANIA POWDER: 1/2 TSP
SALT AS REQUIRED
CORIANDER LEAVES: 2 TBSP CHOPPED
TURMERIC: 1/2 TSP
CRUSHED CRACKERS: 1/4th CUP
OIL FOR SHALLOW FRYING


LEFTOVER DAL CUTLET


MAKING

In a bowl, mix the leftover dal, All-purpose flour, Rice flour, Potato, all the spices, salt, turmeric, Crushed crackers. Make round balls of it and flatten it up. Shallow fry them in oil until it turns golden brown. 

TIPS/VARIATIONS

I used crushed crackers to give a nice crunchy texture to the cutlets. I used Harris Teeter brand roasted vegetable crackers. You could use, Ritz crackers or Maska-Chaska etc.

You could also add cornflour instead of All-purpose flour. 


Since the dal already had onions, I did not add it.
