" Leftovers"
... can bring a smile on our face ( ok! maybe not the family) ). For times when there is not enough to make a meal out of it, we have to get creative and save them from going down the drain . Our poha from yesterday's breakfast, was sitting in the fridge waiting to see the inside of a microwave, to be reheated, too less to feed the family, and too much to ignore, … we made some superdelish fritters. A perfect snack for a cool spring evening ....with a cold lemonade or garam chai.
These will be our entry for : Left over delicacies
Ingredients: serves 4-5
Poha: 1 ½ cup (recipe of poha coming soon) leftover
Potatoes: boiled and mashed – 1 cup
Onion: 1 small finely chopped
Bread: 1or 2 slice: crumbs
Cumin seed: 1 tsp
Salt: to taste
Red chili flakes: 1 tsp
Mix potatoes, poha, bread crumbs, onion, cumin, salt and red chili flakes. With a firm hand make into desired shape …deep fry till brown or shallow fry till both sides are crisp and brown. Enjoy with coriander chutney and/or ketchup.

ReplyDeleteThese look so good- they look very similar to my Iraqi Meat-filled Rice Fritters from the outside but yours are not stuffed. I would like to try your recipe also- is the poha a rice? I did not find a recipe for this. I love your recipes and blog!
