The exams for children have just got over and as usual they want their share of fast food.My neice wanted to call her friends for lunch and the demand was Mcdonalds Burger.I convinced her that her friends would like my homemade ones and she agreed.The recipe of the tikki that I followed was from Cooking & More, jan-feb 2011 issue,by Tarla Dalal.I made some changes in the recipe,like I added ½ grated beet root and some finely chopped mint.I changed the proportions of potato and carrot too.And yet another change…I mixed the oats in the mixture instead of rolling the tikkis in it.
