I tried out this recipe. The patties came out well and tasted good. Though they did’nt look lilke the ones your post. They looked more like tikkis. I really liked the texture and taste. Thank you for posting this recipe.
Thank you Smitha for your kind feed back.
Look delicious and innovative. Will surely try. Thankyou for your lovely recipes Kamala.
Can I use rice flour or besan flour instead of corn flour?
You can use rice or besan flour. But the flavor of besan will change the taste slightly.
Tried these today, they turned out excellent. I have some leftover dough. Will try them again tomorrow to see if they will be as crisp as today. Thanks a lot Kamala for another excellent recipe. Wish I could post the picture here.
Thank you for your kind feed back.
