Chickpea Vadai - Toddler friendly

Makes 10 medium shaped vadai

To grind:
1 cup cooked chickpeas
1/4 cup cubed and cooked sweet potato
few coriander leaves
1 garlic
1/4 inch ginger piece
2-3 curry leave
2-5 mint leaves
1 tsp ground cumin
Salt to taste

In a small non-stick pan heat a little oil and add all the ingredients required to grind.
fry a little, I just wanted the garlic and ginger to fry a little and lose raw smell and the coriander, curry and mint leave to cook a bit.

Remove from the stove and let it cool. Now add it to a food processor and blend well.
Check the salt and adjust it according to taste.

Now heat the oil for frying.
Make it into small patty shape and fry until golden brown.

Note: if the mixture is a little watery, add corn starch and mix well.

This is a protein rich food and toddler approved.
