Boil the potatoes until they are tender. Once cooked, peel and mash them in a mixing bowl.
Finely chop the green chili and ginger. Add them to the mashed potatoes.
Add coriander powder, cumin seeds, amchur, turmeric powder, and black pepper to the mashed potatoes.
Chop the fresh coriander leaves and add them to the mixture. Mix everything well to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.
Add the besan to the potato mixture to bind it together. This will help in forming and holding the shape of the tikkis.
Divide the potato mixture into equal portions and shape each portion into a round patty or 'tiki'.
Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
Place the tikkis in the pan and shallow fry them until they are golden brown and crispy on both sides, about 4-5 minutes per side.
Remove the tikkis from the pan and drain them on paper towels to remove excess oil.
Serve the tikkis hot as a snack or appetizer with a side of mint chutney or yogurt dip.
