Ragda Patties is one of the very famous Mumbai street food( chaat variety).
It is a healthy chat, rich in protein. Ragda is a gravy made of dried yellow peas which is poured over patties made of potatoes and topped with varieties of chutnies, chopped onions and sev.
Today I have made patties with broccoli, corn and potatoes to make it more healthier. This is my family’s most favourite chaat and it was my pleasure to see them enjoying this chaat:)
