Lockdown special is my target everyday which is awakening the creativity in me. My husband is here with full support to taste and enjoy. I have mentioned about our Moringa tree in our garden a few days before. About Moringa leaves again. For us Moringa leaf is one among in the list of super food. The leaves are rich in vitamins, minerals, protein, fibre and amino acids which help your body heal and build muscles. As an antioxidant it protects cells from damage.
Thought of making Moringa leaf rice patties. No flour in the pantry. But have parboiled white rice. Decided to prepare for evening tea. Prepared two types. Green and Red.
Ingredients for green
Parboiled white rice 1 cup, soaked, drained and grinded into a semi coarse mix.
Moringa leaves a handful. Add to the ground rice and mix it for once in the grinder.
Shallots 4, dried red chilli 2, ginger 1 inch, finely chopped, salt to taste.
Mix all the ingredients together.
Coconut oil enough to deep fry.
Heat oil in a shallow pan, take a gooseberry size dough, flatten it and deep fry.
Ingredients for Red patties are same as above. Instead of red chilli used 1/2 tsp., chilli powder. Combined all the ingredients in a bowl and fried as above.
Place the fried patties on a plate layered with a kitchen tissue to absorb the excess oil.
Serve hot with your favourite sauce and drink.
We had it simply with tea 🍵. Super healthy. Proud of my creativity to cook the healthy delicious snacks for tea ☕️
