- ⅓ cup onion (finely chopped) or 1 medium-sized
- 1 green chili chopped or ½ to 1 teaspoon, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Coriander leaves
- 1 pinch turmeric powder (ground turmeric)

- ½ teaspoon cumin powder (ground cumin)
- ½ teaspoon coriander powder (ground coriander)
- ¼ to ½ teaspoon garam masala
- 3 tablespoon gram flour (besan) or chickpea flour
- salt as required
- 3 tablespoons neutral cooking oil for shallow frying or as required, generic cooking oil
Instructions
Making rice cutlet mixture
- Take all the ingredients in a mixing bowl, except oil.
- Mix very well. Check the taste and add more of the ground spice powders or salt if needed.
- Mix everything very well. When you are mixing, the rice will also get mashed.
- Shape the mixture into small to medium sized patties or tikkis.
Frying rice cutlet
- Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a frying pan or tawa (skillet). Keep the heat to medium low to medium hot.
- When the oil becomes medium hot, place the rice cutlets on the tawa.
- When the base is lightly browned, flip them using a spatula and fry the other side.
- Flip again and fry till they are crisp and golden. You will have to flip them a couple of times for even cooking.
- When nicely crisp and golden, remove them and place them on kitchen paper towel so that any extra oil is absorbed if any.
- Serve Rice Cutlet hot with coriander chutney or mint chutney or tomato ketchup.
Notes
- Spices and green chilies can be adjusted as per your taste.
- Make sure the rice is well cooked and not al-dente.
- You can even pan fry the cutlets with less oil. You can use any neutral-flavored oil.
- Instead of besan, you can also use roasted black chickpea flour (sattu) or cornstarch or rice flour and even breadcrumbs.
- The recipe can be doubled or tripled.
- If you want to include some veggies in these cutlets then you can consider adding ¼ cup of grated veggies like carrots or beetroot. Some boiled or steamed peas can also be added.
