Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Potatoes
- 0.5 cup Green peas
- 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
- 3 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Garam masala
- 0.25 teaspoon Turmeric
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro
- 1 inch Ginger
- Oil for frying
Instructions
Boil the potatoes until tender. Peel and mash them in a large mixing bowl.
Steam or boil the green peas until they are soft. Mash them lightly and add to the potatoes.
Add breadcrumbs, cornstarch, ground cumin, ground coriander, red chili powder, garam masala, turmeric, and salt to the mashed potatoes and peas.
Finely chop the cilantro and grate the ginger, then add both to the mixture.
Mix everything thoroughly until the ingredients are well combined.
Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape each portion into a flat round patty or tikki.
Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, gently place the tikkis in the pan, a few at a time, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
Fry each side until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Remove from the pan and drain on paper towels to absorb excess oil.
Serve hot with chutney or ketchup.
