- Coriander-cumin powder
- Dry mango powder (amchur powder)

Method
- Soak dried white peas (white matar) early morning in 4 cups of water for a minimum of 4-6 hours.
- Drain the water and transfer the soaked peas to a pressure cooker. Add 1 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp turmeric powder, and 3 cups of water. Pressure cook for 4 whistles on high heat. Let it cool.
- Release the whistle, release the pressure, and open the cooker. Add the spices as per your taste and let it simmer. Ragda (gravy) is ready.
For Patties:
- Add hot water to soy chunks/granules. Let it rise. Once it cools down, strain it.
- Cook sama millet by adding double the amount of water (Eg: 2:1 ratio, 2 cups of water for every 1 cup of sama). Add salt to taste. Cook until the water evaporates and we get the dry cooked sama. Let it cool.
- Mix both ground soy and sama. Add some spices as per your taste and roll into small discs. (If using Soy chunks, grind them in the Mixer)
- Refrigerate the patties for at least 10 mins.
- Shallow fry on Tawa on both sides. Serve hot with Ragda. Tip it with sweet chutney. Sprinkle chaat masala and sev.
- Healthy, tasty Paryushan/Tithi special Ragda Patties are ready!!
Notes
Contains: Soy: I look out for chaats and snack items all the time, and this is one of the chaats that I make especially during Chaudas/Aatham days.
