• 2 cups leftover rice- refrigerated overnight
• 1 cup grated green papaya ( I used this because i had half a papaya lying around, you can use any such veggie like bottle gourd, or a carrot-just make sure it''s not something that will ooze too much liquid)
• Finely chopped green chillies1-2-depending on the spiciness
• Pinch of turmeric powder
• -Few springs of chopped coriander leaves
• 2 tbsp of gram flour -besan
• -Salt to taste

Mix all the above ingredients in a bowl. The mixture should not be too soft, or else the patties wont retain their shape. To harden it, add some more gramflour.

Shape into ovals / rounds. Grease a non-stick pan with a tspn of oil, and place the patties. Cook till golden brown and crisp on the outside, on both sides.

This should take around 5-7 minutes per side on a slow flame.

Serve with chutney / tomato ketchup.
