Ingredients

• 1/2 tsp turmeric powder
• 1/2 tsp cumin powder
• 1/2 tsp coriander powder
• 1/2 tsp garam masala
• 1/4 cup breadcrumbs

Directions

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
   • Ask your little helpers to wash and chop the methi leaves. Show them how to peel and boil the potato until it’s soft enough to mash. Grate the carrot and chop the onion finely.
2. Mix the Ingredients:
   • In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped methi leaves, mashed potato, grated carrot, chopped onion, turmeric powder, cumin powder, coriander powder, garam masala, and breadcrumbs. Mix everything well using your hands.
3. Shape the Tikkis:
   • Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions. With your hands, shape each portion into a small round tikki, flattening it slightly.
4. Cook the Tikkis:
   • Heat oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Place the tikkis in the pan and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
5. Serve and Enjoy:
   • Remove the tikkis from the pan and let them cool slightly before serving. These methi tikkis are best enjoyed with a side of yogurt or ketchup. Your little helpers will love these healthy and tasty snacks!
