This is a yummy Hara Bhara Tikki / Cutlet recipe that I dished out from some leftover spinach-eggplant-capsicum curry. I just added some powdered oats, fresh bread crumbs and other basic ingredients and here you are. Yummy and delicious tea-time snack in no time.

So do try and make use of any veg. curry in this way and feel satisfied that you were able to make good use of the curry. They can also be served as an appetizer with some green chutney / sauce. Try rolling them in parathas for a delicious roll / frankie....
