👨🍳 Zubereitung
- 1
Prepare the Aloo Tikki Mixture: In a large bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, green peas, finely chopped green chilies, grated ginger, chaat masala, chopped coriander leaves (if using), and salt to taste. Mix everything thoroughly until well combined. The mixture should be firm enough to shape.
⏱️ 15 minutes - 2
Shape the Patties: Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions. Take one portion and shape it into a flat, round patty, about 1.5-2 cm (about 0.75 inches) thick. Repeat with the remaining mixture. Ensure the edges are neat.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 3
Coat the Patties: Spread the breadcrumbs on a plate. Gently press each shaped patty into the breadcrumbs, ensuring it is evenly coated on both sides. This coating will help achieve a crispy exterior.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 4
Shallow Fry the Aloo Tikkis: Heat about 2-3 cm (about 1 inch) of oil in a shallow pan or skillet over medium heat. The oil is ready when a small piece of bread dropped in sizzles immediately. Carefully place 3-4 tikkis into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 4-6 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and crisp. Adjust the heat as needed to prevent burning.
⏱️ 12 minutes - 5
Drain and Serve: Remove the fried aloo tikkis from the pan using a slotted spoon and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil. Serve hot with your favorite chutneys (like mint-coriander or tamarind chutney) or use them as a base for a delicious aloo tikki chaat.
