This vegetarian sizzler brings together crisp potato tikkis, fragrant mint rice and a silky corn and spinach sauce. It is generous, satisfying and especially good when you want a meatless main course that still feels celebratory.

Serves: 4 people

Preparation time: 180 min

Ingredients

  • Potatoes – 500 g
  • Cooked mint rice – 3 cups
  • Sweet corn – 1 cup
  • Spinach – 200 g
  • Milk – 1 cup
  • Butter – 2 tbsp
  • Cornflour – 1 tbsp
  • Carrot – 1
  • Beans – 150 g
  • Bell pepper – 1
  • Breadcrumbs – 1 cup
  • Green chilli – 1
  • Ginger – 1 tsp
  • Mint – 1 handful
  • Cumin – 1 tsp
  • Salt – to taste
  • Oil – as needed

Method

step 1
Boil the potatoes, mash them roughly and season with salt, chilli, ginger and cumin. Shape into patties, coat lightly in breadcrumbs and pan-fry until the crust turns crisp and golden.
step 2
Warm the cooked rice with chopped mint and a little butter or oil. Keep the grains separate, because fluffy rice makes the platter feel lighter and helps the sauce spread more evenly later.
step 3
Cook the spinach briefly, then blend it with milk into a smooth sauce. Simmer sweet corn in the sauce and thicken lightly with cornflour so you get a pourable but velvety consistency.
step 4
Stir-fry the carrot, beans and bell pepper over high heat so they stay bright and slightly crunchy. A hot, fast stir-fry prevents the vegetables from turning watery on the platter.
step 5
Assemble the sizzler on a preheated plate with rice, vegetables and potato tikkis, then spoon over the corn-spinach sauce right before serving. The contrast between the crisp patties and the creamy sauce is what makes this dish memorable.
