The moment I came across Rachels Bite Leftover Tuesdays Event at Dining Hall I was so excited and immediately decided to send in an entry. It's so true that we can make so many innovative recipes out of leftovers instead of eating them 'as is'. I had some leftover veggie patties from our burger dinner and had frozen them. I made a tasty and spicy gravy for the patties and had them with rotis. I got the gravy recipe idea from Foodie's Hope where Asha had posted a recipe for Malai Kofta. Here is my version.

How easy this looks Lakshmi. Great snack for winter.
Seema, Bee, Jyothsna, Prema and Jas - Glad you liked the recipe. Thanks.
Those look so good. I wonder how the veggie patties would be with a sweet sauce, like applesauce.
By the way, the Leftover Tuesdays Roundup is now posted. Thanks for participating!
Hi, glad to know you at Leftover Tuesdays!
That's a good mix of spices you have used.
Lakshmi, I made this today morning, but instead of adding the patties , I used baked beans and used tomato ketchup instead of sauce and kept some gravy aside as a bread spread and it was wonderful!!! Thanks for the recipe
