ingredients for spinach carrot xmas treats
  1. Spring onions - These give a unique zingy intense flavour.
  2. Spinach- I have used baby spinach leaves for this recipe. These are soft and have a sweeter flavor than the matured ones.

  4. Cilantro - Adds vibrant flavor and fragrance to the treats.
  5. Flour - I use Pillsbury Atta with multigrain. Use any.
  6. Salt - Regular table salt

Substitutions

  • Replace spring onions with onions if these are not available. But this recipe tastes amazing with spring onions.
  • Cilantro is optional. Skip it if you don’t like it.
  • Substitute butter with oil for a healthier option. But you will compromise on the taste.

Variations

  • You can also bake these treats instead of shallow fry. Bake them at 180 °C for 10-15 mins with the change of side in between.
  • Use gluten-free flour for gluten-free options.
  • Add green chilies for a spicy version.

Equipment

To make this spinach carrot Christmas treat, I use Christmas cookie cutters from Coles in the shape of a star, gingerbread man, and flower.
Feel free to use whatever you like.

Serving ideas

These savory Christmas treats are so yummy that you won't need anything to serve with them.

But you can serve them with chutneys like green chutney, carrot chutney, spicy schezwan sauce, and tomato sauce.

Storage

  • Store the leftover spinach and carrot treats in the fridge.
  • Reheat on a skillet or microwave them for 30 seconds before serving.
  • These stay fresh for 3-4 days when stored in the fridge.

Tips

  1. Cook these spinach carrot treats on low heat only. Otherwise, it may not cook properly.
  2. Flip the sides in between to provide them heat on all sides.
  3. If treats don’t stay in their shapes after cutting, refrigerate for 10 minutes before frying them.
  4. Add water slowly while kneading the dough to avoid sticky, runny dough.
  5. Make a disc of thickness less than 0.6 cm or ¼ inch.
  6. The number of treats may vary depending on the treat cut-out size and thickness of the disc you rolled.
