How to Prepare Protein rich Paneer Moong Tikki at home?

Paneer moong tikki offers a plethora of nutritional benefits. Moong dal is rich in protein, essential for muscle repair and growth, while paneer provides calcium for strong bones and teeth. Capsicum and carrots add a dose of vitamins A and C, promoting healthy vision and boosting immunity. Additionally, these tikkis are high in fiber, aiding digestion and promoting satiety. The use of olive oil for shallow frying ensures healthy fats, beneficial for heart health. Overall, this snack is a nutritious blend of protein, vitamins, and fiber, making it a wholesome option for those seeking a balanced diet.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 cup soaked yellow moong dal

  • 1/2 teaspoon ginger garlic paste
  • 2 teaspoon rice flour
  • Salt to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garam masala
