These Rice Tikkies were a twist to the regular tikkis that we make. We wanted to make it more healthy by not adding maida to the dough. The crunchy onions added taste and this was a quick snack for the kids.
The special thing about these were the fact that they can be kept on the tawa and be forgotten. Well not quite literally though. Unlike the starchy potato Tikkis, these don't get overcooked or need immediate attention.
Ingredients Needed:Cooked Rice - 3/4 cup
Wheat Flour - 1/2 cup

yumm, looks so crunchy
Mina Joshi says
The tikkis look great. I assume you have to soak the rice and gram and then grind to make the flour?

harini-jaya says
This is an interesting variation for sure!!
Srivalli says
Yes this didn't require potatoes..the wheat flour made sure the tikkis stayed put..
mina, these were made with store bought flour, but with home made flour it will come out very well.

Priya says
Never thought tikkis can be prepared without potatoes, rice tikkis looks fabulous..
My attempt at The Julie/Julia project says
Love love the tikkis 🙂 i have a question though... rice is rice flour right? or cooked rice?
divya says
looks very tempting dear....
Srivalli says
These can be made both with cooked rice and rice flour. I have made with both, esp with leftover rice. It comes out well to. But the ones in the pictures were made with rice flour.
Gayathri Kumar says
Looks so yummy. Kids will surely love it..
Smita says
New twist to tikkis... love to try them!
Red Scintilla says
u mean we can use boiled rice directly in the mixture ? and how do we add the gram 😮 pardon me , im new in cooking !! :$ and lack common sense abt it 😛
Srivalli Jetti says
Red Scintilla, Have updated the post, I had gone with an assumption. Gram flour is the flour from Fried channa dal.
