I am so much enjoying this chat series. I loved cooking it and clicking it but posting it is so much fun than that. I see so many of my readers loving my chat recipes and I get comments on social media a lot. For the fourth day of chat, here is a relatively simple recipe. I have seen so many posts from friends on ragda patties, but haven’t tried it personally. We don’t even get it here in chat shops. So when I decided on chat for this week, I included ragda patties. As the name suggests, this dish has two main components – the ragda and the patties. This is a famous Maharashtrian and Gujrathi street food. Ragda is a mild gravy made with dried white peas and pattice is the potato cutlet. The whole dish is assembled by topping pattice with ragda and chutneys and sev.
When I made this dish for our evening snack, little did I know that it would be too filling. We all skipped that night’s dinner after having this. It tasted so yum. Myself and hubby used all the toppings but Sruti made her plate herself adding only the ingredients she liked. In fact she assembled all her chat recipes herself using only her favourite ingredients. Once you are ready with the ragda and the cutlets, gather all the components at a place so that it is easy to assemble the dish without forgetting any of the ingredient.
Ingredients:
For Ragda:
Dried White Peas – 1 cup
Potato – 2
Oil – 1 tbs
Curry Leaves – two sprigs
Red Chilly Powder – 1/2 tsp
Garam Masala – 1/2 tsp
Turmeric Powder – 1/4 tsp
Salt – to taste
For The Potato Cutlets:
Potato – 4-5
Red Chilly Powder – 1/2 tsp
Garam Masala – 1/2 tsp
Coriander Leaves – 2 tbs
Maida / Flour – 5-7 tbs
Salt – to taste
Oil to fry
For The Topping:
Chopped Onions
Green Chutney
Sweet Chutney
Coriander Leaves
Sev
Grated Carrots
Chat Masala Powder
Procedure:
For The Ragda:
Soak the peas overnight.
Wash and pressure cook them for 5-6 minutes along with turmeric powder.
Boil, peel and cube potatoes.
Heat oil and add the potatoes, red chilly powder, garam masala powder and sauté until combined.
Add the cooked peas along with the water.
Add salt to taste and allow it to boil on medium low flame for five minutes.
Reheat it while serving.
For The Patties:
Boil, peel and mash potatoes.
Add all the ingredients except oil and mix to form a slightly sticky dough.
If you feel that it is too sticky, dust with more flour.
Divide into equal portions.
Shape the portions into cutlets.
Heat a tawa and drizzle some oil.
Place the patties and fry them until both sides are nicely browned.
Transfer to a serving plate.
Assembling the Dish:
Arrange two patties on a plate.
Top with generous hot ragda.
Now to it with green chutney and sweet chutney.
Add onions, carrots, sev and coriander leaves.
Sprinkle chat masala on top and serve immediately.
