Bottlegourd Tikki

Bottlegourd Tikki

It was on a Sunday when I had quite heavy breakfast and waned to have something refreshing and light, that's when I made this Tikki.

I had this along with freshly Cut Cucumber Salad and Masala Curd. The Cucumber,Curd and Bottlegourd was so refreshing.

I am sending this to Lets brunch on Sundays event organised by Priya. 



Ingredients

Bottle Gourd - 1 Cup (Grated)
Besan/Gram Flour - 2 Tablespoon
Rice Flour - 2 Tablespoon
Ginger Garlic Paste - 1/2 teaspoon
Chilli Powder - 1 Teaspoon
Garam masala - 1/4 Teaspoon
Salt and Oil

Method

In a mixing bowl, add add ingredients except oil and mix well. Divide them into equal parts and shape them as tikkis.

Meanwhile, place a pan on the stove. Once the pan is hot, smear some oil and arrange the prepared tikki and cook.

Cook till it is golden brown on both sides.

I had it with Freshly cut cucumber and Curd flavoured with Chaas Masala.


Tips
I did not have any problems in making the tikkis with the above given ingredients. if you have doubt on the consistency add Bread slices or Bread Crumbs. You can also add Besan or rice flour, however I do not prefer it as it makes the tikki heavy and not fluffy.
