Note:
  • While grinding the moong dal ensure that it doesn’t have water in it.
  • Instead of moong dal you can add boiled potato too.
  • Finely chopped capsicum, cabbage , corn kernels can be added to the tikkis.
  • I used the rolled oats, you can use the quick cooking oats too.

  27. I m regular visitor of your blog and tried few of recipes. Really a very useful blog. I tried this recipe with Masala oats so there was no need of garam masala for me. Also i m thinking to use this balls as stuffing for paratha. In that way we can incorporate veggie, dal, oats n atta a wholesome lunch box meal for the kids!

  30. should we dry roast the oats which we dust for tikkis?
    shall we prepare the tikkis and refrigirate (by placing the tikkis in a plate and cover them with a plastic cover) and toast them when needed.

    1. No need to dry roast the one which we use for dusting. And you can make it and toast it when needed

  31. Tikkis without Aloo .... Sounds Interesting :) May be some grated beetroot would make it more colourful ..
