Aloo Tikki, The Delectable Street Food

 

Aloo Tikki is a popular Indian street food served with various chutney's. Aloo Tikki chaat is one of my favorite way of enjoying Aloo Tikka.

How to make Aloo Tikki

Step1 Prepare the potato-peas mixture and make tikkis with it 

To make this easy Aloo Tikki recipe, take a glass bowl and add potatoes, peas, coriander leaves, chaat masala, chili powder, corn flour, salt. Mix well all these ingredients. Once done, divide the mixture into 12 equal portions and shape each portion into a round Tikki.

Step2 Coat the tikkis with breadcrumb and shallow fry them

Now, to attain a crispy texture, coat the prepared tikkis with breadcrumbs on all sides by rolling it in the breadcrumbs filled plate. Meanwhile, heat oil in a pan over medium flame and shallow fry the tikkis, till both sides are golden brown in color. You can also cook them in an air-fryer for a healthier version.

Step3 Serve Aloo Tikkis Hot

Once done, transfer the Aloo Tikkis on a kitchen towel so that excess oil is absorbed. Place the homemade Aloo Tikkis on a serving plate and pair them with tomato ketchup or green chutney. These tikkis taste the best when served with a piping hot cup of tea or coffee.

You can also use a immersion blender or mixing rod. 3) Next add 3 to 4 tablespoons sugar, 1pinch of saffron strands or 1 teaspoon rosewater .

Just ask your paranthawala to avoid butter and eat yours with a side of pyaaz or pickle instead of dahi and butter. While many stalls serve up paneer, anda and cheese paranthas, there are much more vegan fillings to choose from, like aloo, pyaaz-tamatar, mooli, matar, gobi and many more! So, keep this in mind and enjoy a wholesome and filling vegan snack. Parantha is a popular Indian flatbread made from whole wheat flour.
