Kid's Lunch

Veg fried rice with vegetable cutlets.

Hello, community, today making Indian style lunch.
This post is for Hive account@qurator top hive-chef The lunch for kids. Last year in my cooking class i taught some parents this Indian healthy lunch and I got many good comments. Kids like this menu. It may look dry but it has good moisture from vegetables some parents add yogurt dressing, or some sauce. instead of using oil they use butter. but mine is 100% vegan version. I use oil.
It is two steps but very quick done.
Step 1 making cutlets:

Ingredients:
3 leaves of cabbage
2 spring onion
1/2 green paprika
1 small carrot
4 cilantro sprigs
1/2 onion
1/2 cup chickpea flour
1 tbsp cooking oil
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp salt.

Finely chop all vegetables, cabbage, paprika ,carrot, spring onion, cilantro.

Add salt and pepper.

Add chick flour and mix all together.

it will bind enough to form into balls.

Make lime size balls.

these ingredients yield balls.

/flatten into cutlet shape.

heat a skillet with 1 tbsp oil and fry the cutlets on both side on medium heat.

when done they look like this.

keep aside.
