Paneer aloo sabudana tikki
- Tikki or cutlets are small, round, spiced patties made using potatoes, lentils, or grains. This popular Indian street food can be served as a snack, appetizer, or side for any meal.
- Sabudana tikki is a healthier pan-fried version of sabudana vada and is best served with spicy farali green chutney. You can also cook this tikki like sabudana appe.
- Paneer, aloo (potato), and sabudana can be consumed on fasting and vrat days, such as Navratri, Ekadashi, Karwa Chauth, etc. So I have made these simple patties (cutlets) using the same ingredients that can be consumed on Upvas days. Sago cutlets are so tasty and filling that you can prepare them on other days too for lunchbox, use as patties for sandwiches, burger buns, or even as an evening snack with chai or disco coffee.
