Rajma (Red Kidney bean) Cutlet Recipe – Healthy Snack Idea

During my college days, I loved vegetable cutlet. The best one was from the roadside pushcart one near my home. He sold it from 5 PM and we used to wait for the time and rush to buy. It was the most wanted after school snack for myself and my sisters. These days that pushcart is no more I really miss that. My kids love the tikkis or cutlets. Cutlets can be served as snacks or stuffing to bread or in addition to a salad or placed as a part of the wrap. so it is a perfect multi-purpose recipe. It can be deep-fried as well as shallow fried. These days most of the time I do shallow fry. I have added 2 tablespoons of cheese gratings. But you can avoid it or replace it with paneer
