water. Finely chop. Mix spinach, peas and potatoes. Add green chillies, ginger, coriander leaves, chaat masala and salt to taste.
Add cornflour for binding. Divide the mixture into twenty-four equal portions. Shape each portion into a ball and then press it
between your palms to give it a flat tikki shape.

Chef's Tip
You may also shallow-fry the Hara Bhara Kabab on a griddle plate or a tawa. It is recommended that you do not use colour in this
recipe. If you feel you may increase the quantity of spinach leaves to give a dark green colour. In that case add a little more
cornstarch for binding.
