A spicy, crunchy, delicious Indian fritter made with a mish-mash of potatoes, carrots and green peas. These deep fried spicy cutlets (also known as "tikki") are extremely popular in India and often enjoyed with yogurt, green chutney or tomato ketchup - as per your taste.
Ingredients:
1. Potatoes - 3 (boiled)
2. Green peas - 1 cup (boiled)
3. Carrot - 1 medium sized (boiled)
4. Ginger paste - 1 tsp
5. Chat masala & Garam masala - 1.2 tsp each
6. Red Chilli powder - 1/4 tsp
7. Ghee - 1 tsp
8. Coriander leaves (finely chopped) - handful
9. Green chilli - 2-3 chopped (as per taste)
10. Corn flour or Maida - 2 tsp
11. Bread crumbs (from fresh bread) - 3 to 4 bread pieces
12.Salt to taste
13. Oil - for frying
Process:
1. Mash the boiled potatoes, peas and carrot in a mixing bowl, make sure there are no chunks of potatoes.
2. Add all the spices, other ingredients and bread crumbs and flour. Begin to mix and make a firm and non sticky ball, if it's sticky you can add more bread crumbs.
3. Divide the mixture to equal parts and make balls, flatten them and give shape. You can give shapes as you wish - round, square or heart shape.
4. 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.
5. Serve them hot with tomato ketchup or green chutney.
