Oats Veggie Cutlets

This one is specially for my toddler! Kids will love this, but it can be enjoyed by every age group!

 She is quite a fussy eater & I have to keep experimenting with various food and textures to make food healthy & interesting for her to consume.

 Oats Veggie Shapers is one such recipe which resulted out of an experiment & it turned out to be successful :-)



Interestingly Oats are designed to be that one superfood that easily suits various needs. Be it a quick fix for those in-between meals hunger pangs, an evening snack or a proper meal! Light on stomach, full of fiber and essential nutrients and low on fat, oats are one of those wonder foods that are best suited for maintaining a healthy lifestyle as well as keep the energy levels up.

 As for the veggies used - Potato, Carrot & Beetroot. They are full of health benefits & packed with nutrients and essential vitamins and minerals.

 Without further ado, here goes the recipe:

 Ingredients:
- 1 Potato: Boiled & mashed
- 1 Carrot: Boiled & grated
- 1/4th Beetroot: Boiled & grated
- 2 cloves Garlic: Grated
- 1/2 cup Oats
- 1 tsp Olive oil
- A pinch of roasted Cumin powder
- Salt as per taste
- Coriander leaves

 Method:

  1. Dry roast the oats & take them out in a separate bowl.
  2. Add all the ingredients & create a fine mixture.
  3. Create shapes out of the mixture & let them settle for 15-20 minutes.
  4. Shallow fry the shapers in olive oil on a non-stick pan, turning sides for an even cooking.
  5. Serve hot
These can be enjoyed with tomato ketchup for a homemade green chutney!

Serve it to your little ones & watch them smile. Let them identify the shapes & then gobble these up in no time.

 Until next time!

 Take care & Happy Cooking!
