For Aloo Tikki :
- 2 and 1/2 medium sized potato ~1.5 cups after mashing
- 1/3 cup bread crumbs
- 1 teaspoon red chilli powder
- 1/4 teaspoon chat masala powder
- 1/2 teaspoon jeera powder
- 1/2 teaspoon garam masala powder
- 1/2 tablespoon coriander leaves finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- cooking oil to toast
- salt to taste
For Aloo Tikki Chaat :
- 4 aloo tikki (I used 4)
- 2 tablespoon sweet chutney
- 2 tablespoon green chutney
- raw onion as needed
- a pinch red chilli powder
- chaat masala powder as needed
- 1/4 cup plain sev
- coriander leaves as needed
Instructions
- Cut each potato into 2 halves and pressure cook for 4 whistles or until soft.
- Peel off the skin and mash it well without any lumps.
- Add red chilli powder,garam masala powder,cumin powder,chat masala powder,lemon juice,coriander leaves and required salt to the mashed potatoes.
- Mix well to form a smooth dough.
- Pinch a lemon sized ball and roll it well, then flatten them into round patties as shown below.
- Roll the patties in breadcrumbs so that it coats well on all sides.
- Now finish the batter by repeating the process.
- I just made 6 tikkis for click sake and reserved the batter for later use.
- Heat dosa pan – drizzle oil, add the aloo tikkis and toast well on both sides till they turn golden brown and slightly crisp.
- Take the tikkis in a serving plate, drizzle sweet chutney and green chutney.
- Sprinkle raw onion,sev , coriander leaves.Sprinkle a tiny pinch of chat masala powder.
- Serve Aloo Tikki Chaat immediately.
Notes
- Coating them with breadcrumbs then toasting gives a crispy outer layer and soft inside.
- You can even add 1/4 cup boiled peas along with potato.
- I used my potato masher to mash the potatoes, if you don’t have one then mash it well with a laddle.
- The dough should be tight enough to hold together, if the dough is watery / runny then your tikkis will break when you toast them.
- Alternatively you can deep fry them too.
- Flip over the tikkis gently while toasting them in tawa.
- I used my cast iron dosa tawa to toast, you can even use nonstick dosa tawa.
- You can even toast the tikkis in ghee.
- The quantity of chutneys, sev and other garnishes depends purely on your preference.
