Chickpea and Curd Cheese Patties are made by mashing cooked chickpeas and mixing them with curd cheese, seasoning, and a binder until the mixture holds its shape. Form patties and pan-fry them in a little oil until browned on both sides.
To keep Chickpea and Curd Cheese Patties intact, drain the chickpeas well and remove excess moisture from the cheese. Mash the chickpeas until the mixture holds together, chill it briefly if it feels soft, and wait for the underside to brown before flipping.
Yes, Chickpea and Curd Cheese Patties can be baked. Arrange them on a lined tray, brush lightly with oil, and bake until firm and browned, turning them carefully if needed. They may have a less crisp crust than pan-fried patties.
A mild, fresh, crumbly cheese can replace curd cheese in Chickpea and Curd Cheese Patties, but the texture and saltiness will change. Choose a cheese that is not too wet, or drain it first so the mixture stays firm enough to shape.
Yes, canned chickpeas work well for Chickpea and Curd Cheese Patties. Rinse and drain them thoroughly before mashing, since excess liquid can make the mixture loose. Avoid blending them completely smooth if you want a more textured patty.
No, Chickpea and Curd Cheese Patties do not always need an egg. Well-drained chickpeas and curd cheese may hold together without one; if the mixture is too crumbly, add a small amount of binder and mix again before shaping.
Serve Chickpea and Curd Cheese Patties with a crisp salad, roasted vegetables, or a tangy yogurt sauce. They also work in a wrap with greens and sliced vegetables; add the sauce just before serving to keep the patties from getting soggy.
Cooked Chickpea and Curd Cheese Patties keep in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat them in a skillet or oven until hot throughout; this helps restore their browned exterior better than microwaving.
Yes, Chickpea and Curd Cheese Patties can be frozen after cooking. Cool them completely, freeze them in a single layer, then transfer them to a sealed container; reheat from thawed in a skillet or oven for a firmer crust.
To make Chickpea and Curd Cheese Patties less oily, bake them or pan-fry them in a nonstick skillet with only a thin coating of oil. Brushing the patties lightly is usually enough; they do not need to sit in a pool of oil.

Chickpea and Curd Cheese Patties are made by combining mashed cooked chickpeas with curd cheese and seasonings, shaping the mixture into patties, then pan-frying them. They’re a home-style preparation, and the herbs and spices can vary from one recipe to another.
The outside turns lightly golden while the centre stays soft and hearty. They work well as a light main with salad or yoghurt, or as part of a shared spread; leftovers can also be served cold. Chickpeas and curd cheese make these patties a filling source of protein, with fibre from the legumes. The amount of oil used affects how rich they are, so use a light hand in the pan and pair them with plenty of fresh vegetables for a lighter meal.
