50 g grated paneer

1 tsp chopped ginger

1 tsp chopped garlic

1 tbsp chopped chilli

4-5 chopped cashew nut

Method

Method:

Mix together all ingredients for the tikkis. Add more powdered oats if necessary, and bring it together.
Apply a little oil on your hands, take small balls of the mixture and form even patties.
Tawa fry on a non stick pan brushed with ghee until brown and crispy on both sides.
Sprinkle with a little lime juice, chaat masala, seed trail mix and serve with some chilli sauce or mint chutney.
Note - I wanted to save time while cooking my quinoa and sweet potato so I cooked them together in a pressure cooker. Add washed quinoa to the pressure cooker with peeled sweet potato, cover with 300 ml water and pressure cook for 10 minutes. Quickest fix!
