Beetroot cutlets/ tikki

 beetroot tikki/beetroot patties recipe 

Ingredients
 
1 large beetroot grated, (about 1.25 cup)
 
2 medium boiled and grated potato (about 1 cup)
 
¼ cup roasted peanuts crushed
 
3 tbsp  breadcrumbs / corn flour / rice flour /  fine sooji/ oats crushed
 
1 tsp ginger grated
 
2 green chilies finely chopped
 
2 tbsp coriander leaves finely chopped
 
½ tsp garam masala
 
1 tsp chaat masala
 
½ tsp amchur pdr / 1 tsp lime juice
 
salt to taste
 
 
Preparations 
 In a pressure cooker, boil potatoes with some salt and water for 3-4 whistles on medium flame. Once done, grate or mash the potatoes.  Peel and grate beetroot and squeeze out the excess juice. Note: I have not boiled the beets here. Take a mixing bowl. Combine all the ingredients and mix well.  Note: Instead of breadcrumbs you can also add corn flour or rice flour or rava(sooji) as binding agent. Add more bread crumbs if mixture is moist.(DO NOT ADD WATER).
 Preheat your air fryer / oven to 375°F (190°C). Then, place a sheet of parchment in the air fryer basket/tray. Now, place the cutlets into a single layer and brush some oil on top of them. Or place them on a butter paper and brush some oil on top. Bake or in Air-fryer for 12-15 minutes or till crisp. Or you can shallow fry them in a pan adding minimum oil, cover and fry on medium flame. NOTES You can grate the potatoes instead of mashing them to avoid getting lumps while making tikkis. Make sure to squeeze off the juice from the beetroot else you will end up adding more bread crumbs to absorb moisture. You can use the beetroot juice for any curry or make chapati dough. If the tikkis do not hold shape add more bread crumbs or cornflour or rice flour or rava (sooji). This cutlet will taste bland, so make sure to add more spices. You can also add shredded paneer, carrot, boiled peas or, green beans to make it more healthy. Instead of bread crumbs, you can also add cornflour or rice flour, or rava / oats crushed. You can also replace roasted peanuts with any nuts of your choice. But skip it, gives a nice crunch to the cutlets. You can use these tikkis for making veggie burgers / or in chaat.
