ALOO TIKKI

Aloo tikki is a popular shallow fried North Indian Snack made with boiled potatoes, spice powders and other basic ingredients. It is basically a spicy potato patty which is mostly used making aloo chaat. 

Ingredients: 

1. Potatoes - 3 (boiled)
2. Ginger paste - 1 tsp
3. Chat masala & Garam masala - 1.2 tsp each
4. Red Chilli powder - 1/4 tsp
5. Ghee - 1 tsp
6. Coriander leaves (finely chopped) - handful
7. Green chilli - 2-3 chopped (as per taste) 
8. Corn flour or Maida - 2 tsp
9. Bread crumbs (from fresh bread) - 3 to 4 bread pieces
10.Salt to taste
11. Oil - for frying

Process: 

1. Mash the boiled potatoes and add all the other ingredients except oil and ghee. Begin to mix and make a firm and non sticky ball, if it's sticky you can add more bread crumbs.
2. Divide the mixture to equal parts and make balls, flatten them and give shape. Give shapes as you wish - round, square or heart shape.
3. Heat oil and add ghee (to add a good aroma) in a pan and fry them until golden. Keep flipping them to both the sides and fry.
4. Serve them hot with tomato ketchup or green chutney.

P.S. You can use these tikkis for making aloo chaat also.
