Sprout & Mint Cutlet (Payaru-pudina Cutlet)


As my experiment in  the kitchen continues,  here is yet another dish which is healthy as well as tasty.

 
Ingredients:
     Sprouted Green Gram(Moong) – 1 cup
     Chopped Mint and coriander leaves – 1 cup  
     Dhania (coriander powder) - 2tsp
·          Green Chilli – 3 to 4 nos
 
           Asafoetida - 1/2 tsp
 
           Oil - 1 cup
 
·           Salt – to taste
 
Preparation of  green gram sprout:
 Take 1 cup of whole green gram and immerse it in water for about 8 hrs.
 
 Strain the water and take a cloth and cover the green gram and keep it in a dry place.
 
 In a day or two, all the green gram would have sprouted which can be used for preparing any dish of our choice.
Method :

 Take a cup of sprout and the green chillies and grind it coarsely in a mixer. Do not pour water as the water in the sprout is more than enough.
 
 Mix the coarsely ground sprout with dhania, salt and asafoetida well.
 
Make small puddings in a shape of your choice and roll them over on the chopped mint and coriander leaves.

 Heat oil in a pan and cook the cutlet until it turns golden brown. Make sure it gets cooked on all sides.
 
Serve it hot with green chutney or tomato sauce.
