Steps

15-20 minutes

1

Wash and soak tamarind and dates in 1/2 cup lukewarm water. Puree till smooth in a blender.
2

In a pan add the pureed tamarind and dates and also add salt, pepper and jaggery. Let thicken, once cooked the colour of the sauce changes and looks thicker and darker.
3

Dip is ready to serve, let cool completely and store in a glass container. It can be stored in the refrigerator for around a month.
4

Roast peanuts. Remove the cover and coarsely crush.
5

Wash the sago pearls, leave some water (around a tablespoon) and let it soak for 2-4 hours.
6

Peel and crush boiled potatoes, add salt, cumin powder, crushed chillies, black pepper powder, coarsely crushed peanuts. Mix well.
7

Make patties or cutlets by giving a shape to the mixture. Or use a mould to give heart shape like I did. Press some soaked sago pearls on top.
8

Heat oil in a nonstick pan, add prepared patties, sago side down. Roast till colour changes.
9

Make all patties, invert and cook from other side too.
10

Serve in a tray, garnish with drops of sauce, pomegranate arils, mint leaves and peanuts. Enjoy during fasting days.
