Healthy cutlet



Ingredients
chick peas/ kabuli chana soaked over night & cooked 1 cup smashed well
broken wheat/ dalia cooked 1 cup
onion 2 big cut fine
green chilies 5-6 or to taste
salt to taste
carrots 2 finely grated
rice flour 1-2 tbsp
hing/ asafetida little       oil to shallow fry

Method
1) smash well chick peas ( I used what was left over from the chundal )
2) add dalia, finely chopped onion, salt, chilies, rice flr, chili pdr if needed, mix well along with hing
3) heat a non-stick pan, or heavy kadai
4) make small cutlets of the shape you prefer
5) with few drops sprinkled on it, put the oiled part down on the tava/ kadai & put few drops of oil on top
6) turn it over once the bottom is well cooked
7) once both sides are brown/ golden, remove & serve hot with ketchup/ chutney of your choice.

ps- it is healthy, as one, it has very less oil, I made about 12 small cutlets with about 3 tsp of oil !
2) as chick peas have fibre, they're good for diabetic patients also
3) daliya or broken is also fibrous ( in case you've some left over dailya upma, you may use that, that is what I did !)
