Cooking Tips

• Make sure to soak the dried white peas overnight to ensure they cook evenly and become tender.
• You can adjust the spice levels according to your preference by adding more or less red chili powder and green chilies.
• For a healthier version, you can bake the patties in the oven instead of frying them.

Storage and Serving

• Store any leftover patties and curry separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator.
• Reheat the patties in a preheated oven or on a stovetop pan for a few minutes until heated through.
• Serve the patties and curry hot as a main course dish or as an appetizer with mint chutney or tamarind chutney.
