Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium potatoes
- 0.5 cup green peas
- 1 inch piece, grated ginger
- 1 finely chopped green chili
- 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh coriander leaves
- 1 teaspoon cumin powder
- 0.5 teaspoon red chili powder
- 1 teaspoon chaat masala
- 1 teaspoon or to taste salt
- 2 tablespoons cornflour
- 4 tablespoons (for shallow frying) cooking oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
Boil the potatoes until they are soft. Once boiled, peel and mash them in a large mixing bowl.
Boil the peas until tender, then drain and add them to the bowl with the mashed potatoes.
Add the grated ginger, finely chopped green chili, and chopped coriander leaves to the mixture.
Season the mixture with cumin powder, red chili powder, chaat masala, and salt. Mix thoroughly to combine all ingredients evenly.
Add the cornflour to the mixture and knead slightly to make a dough-like consistency. This will help bind the tikkis.
Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape each portion into round, flat tikkis.
Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, shallow fry the tikkis in batches, cooking each side for about 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and crisp.
Drain the tikkis on a paper towel-lined plate to remove any excess oil.
Sprinkle a bit of lemon juice over the tikkis for added flavor and serve hot with mint chutney or yogurt.
