Aloo tikki/ Potato patties:

I don’t think there is anyone who dislikes potato, though dieticians may not recommend potatoes make a great snacking vegetable. Today I present you with a snack that can be very easily prepared and of less calorific value.

Ingredients:
  • Medium sized potatoes – 3
  • Chat masala / garam masala – ½ teaspoon
  • Red chilli powder – ¼ teaspoon
  • Bread crumps enough to caot
  • Salt to taste
  • Oil to toast/ grill the patties

Preparation:

  • Wash and Bake/boil the potatoes and let them cool down before peeling the skin.
  • Add the chat masala/ garam masala, salt and chilli powder to the potatotes and mash them into paste.
  • Make the above mixture into flat patties and roll the in the bread crumps.
  • In grilling pan add a teaspoon of oil and put the patties to grill for a few minutes on one side and turn them over.
  • Grill the patties until the turn light brown in color. Repeat the above procedure for all of the patties. These delicious snacks of potato can be served with ketchup or green chutney.

Warnings:

  • Add salt, chat masala and red chill powder according to your taste.

Alterations:
