Ragda Patties / Ragda Pattice is a super delicious street food from India. It is served in a lot of Indian restaurants as a chaat. This Ragda Patties recipe is a non-fry version of the original recipe to make it healthier!
What is Ragda Patties / Ragda Pattice?
Ragda Pattice is essentially two words. Ragda and Patties - Ragda is a curry that is made with white peas and pattice is a vegetarian patty usually made with potato as the base. These No Fry Patties are made with green pea stuffing inside of a potato crust. They are serve with Ragda or can be even served with Chole / Chickpeas, accompanied with chutneys, yogurt and sev.
This No Fry Ragda Patties actually makes a complete meal and one that takes very little cooking, especially if you have planned ahead and soaked the peas a day before. You can use a filling of your choice for the patties like peas, french beans, paneer, corn etc. I also like to eat just the ragda topped with the onion and chutneys with pav instead of the patties.
How to make Ragda Patties - Step By Step Recipe
Instructions
- For the Patties
- Mash the boiled potatoes.
- Add, cumin, red chilly powder and salt to taste. Mix it thoroughly. If the potatoes are hot, put them in the freezer for approx. 10 mins to cool them down. It will be easier to make the patties.
- Chop green chilly, ginger and green peas in a chopper. Make sure you don't make a paste but grind it coarse. Add salt as per taste.
- Take equal portion of the mashed potato and make balls.
- Flatten the ball.
- Take a spoonful of the green pea and place it between the flattened ball.
- Bring the edges together and close the ball. Make sure the ball has no open edges as there is no binding agent being used in the recipe.

- For Ragda

- Along with the whitepeas, add onion and tomatoes, salt to taste, turmeric, cumin coriander powder and red chilly powder
