Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Boiled potatoes
- 1 medium Grated carrot
- 0.5 cup Green peas
- 3 tablespoons Semolina (sooji)
- 1 teaspoon Ginger paste
- 1 teaspoon Green chilies, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
- 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon Chaat masala
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Low-fat yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Mint chutney
- 2 tablespoons Tamarind chutney
- 1 small Onion, finely chopped
- 1 small Tomato, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons Fresh coriander, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Pomegranate seeds (optional, for garnish)
- 0.25 cup Sprouted moong beans (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the boiled potatoes and add grated carrot, green peas, semolina, ginger paste, chopped green chilies, coriander powder, cumin powder, chaat masala, and salt. Mix well to form a dough-like mixture.
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape them into round patties (tikkis). Place the tikkis onto the prepared baking tray.
Bake the tikkis in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are golden brown on both sides. Alternatively, you can pan-cook them on a non-stick skillet using a light spray of oil.
In a small bowl, whisk the low-fat yogurt until smooth. If needed, add a tablespoon of water to thin it out slightly.
To assemble the chaat, place 2 tikkis on a serving plate. Top them with a dollop of yogurt, a drizzle of mint chutney, and a drizzle of tamarind chutney.
Sprinkle finely chopped onions, tomatoes, and fresh coriander over the top.
For additional garnish, add pomegranate seeds and sprouted moong beans, if using.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious, guilt-free Low Fat Tikki Chaat!
