Brown Rice Tikkis

What you need:

1 cup cooked brown rice
Finely diced, onion, carrots, beans, cabbage, 2-3 green chillies, frozen peas, cilantro to garnish
1 tsp garam masala powder
1 tsp chilli powder
Corn starch( 1 tsp) or handful of poha washed in water ( and drained).
Salt to taste, 1 tsp oil, 1 tsp jeera, 1/2 tsp turmeric

Method:

In a shallow pan, add some oil. Add the jeera, tumeric, and green chillies. Saute for a few seconds. Add the onion and fry until golden brown. Now add the remaining vegetables, and sautee for a few minutes. Add the cilantro. Lower flame, and keep covered for 10 mins.
Then add, the garam masala, chilli powder and salt. Turn off flame and keep the mixture aside.
Take the cooked brown rice, and add to the cooked vegetable mixture. You can add a little corn starch or the wet poha which is mashed (basically these act as binding agent).

Make small balls from the mixture, and pat them into tikki patties. Shallow fry them on a skillet.

Serve hot with ketchup/chutney.
