High-Protein Masoor Dal Tikki

  

 

Masoor Dal Benefits

Masoor dal is a great source of plant-based protein, making it ideal for those looking to eat healthy without relying on heavy foods. It is rich in fibre, which helps keep you full for longer and supports digestion. The dal also contains iron and essential vitamins, supporting energy levels and overall health. Since it is light and easy to digest, it works well for everyday meals and snacks.

How To Make Masoor Dal Tikki

Ingredients

• 1 cup red masoor dal
• 1/2 cup grated paneer
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 1 small carrot, grated
• 1 small capsicum, finely chopped
• 2 green chillies, chopped
• 1 tsp ginger paste
• 2 tbsp coriander leaves
• 2 tbsp besan (if needed)
• 1/2 tsp red chilli powder
• 1/2 tsp cumin powder
• Salt to taste
• 1 tbsp oil for shallow frying

Preparations

Wash the dal properly and soak it in water for about an hour. This softens the dal and makes it easier to grind while also improving the overall texture.

Drain the water and grind the dal into a slightly coarse mixture. Avoid making a smooth paste, as a coarse texture helps in achieving a crisp finish.

Transfer the ground dal to a bowl and add paneer, onion, carrot, capsicum, green chillies, ginger paste and coriander leaves. Mix everything evenly.

Add salt, red chilli powder and cumin powder. If the mixture feels soft, mix in a little besan to bind it well.

Take small portions and shape them into round, flat patties. Keep them uniform for even cooking.

Heat a pan, add a little oil and shallow-fry the tikkis on medium heat. Cook on both sides until they turn golden brown and crisp.

Serving Tip

Serve the hot tikkis with mint chutney or curd dip for extra flavour. You can also pair them with a simple salad to turn this snack into a light and balanced meal.
