Foxtail Millet And Herb Patty is healthy and delicious snack. This Patty is packed with a combination of fresh herbs grown in my balcony. This is a simple vegetarian healthy kebab/kabab recipe that can be made quickly and easily. This recipe does not call for corn starch or bread crumbs for binding as I have coarsely grounded half of the millet to make it easier for binding.
I have made these tikki (patties) by air frying them, but you can also shallow fry them. Both ways it is equally tasty. You can serve these kabab with salad and ketchup by the side.
In India Foxtail millet it is also known as Kangni, in kannada it is called as navane, in tamil as thinai, in telugu as korralu and in bengali as kaon dana. For more details on Foxtail Millet, please refer here.
