Now add 1 egg and 1 tsp salt and mix thoroughly by hand.
Now squeeze out any excess moisture and drain off.
In a seperate bowl take a pack of golden breadcrumbs and add to it 3 tsp Deggi mirch (Kashmiri chilli powder) 1 tblsp mix powder and 2 tsp of smoked paprika and a handful of fresh chopped coriander and mint leaves.

Nice one Adey. Like!  Quite fancy having a go at this using tinned salmon.

This looks interesting.  Sorry if you've already posted it somewhere Adeypayne, but what is your mix powder made up of?  I know they do vary.

Made a batch up last night.  Excellent starter!  Thanks for the recipe Adey.

Ahh, so it's a tikki. I never read the recipe when posted and assumed it was a curry.
Watched a few of The Foodie YouTube vids last night. He was with a chef who made a veg tikki covered in roughly bashed cooked papads.  Looked quite good with a crunchy coating.
The chef said masala poppadoms are the most sold item in restaurants in India.
One for Phil perhaps?

lovely  presentation Bob
Not too sure about the cottage cheese

Oi!  It's a good mint dip is that.  Chunks of crunchy cucumber and onion too.  It does look a bit lumpy though.  ;D
