Aloo Tikki Chaat Potato Tikki recipe step by step pictures
Still remember those narrow lanes of old Delhi and the authentic, finger licking “Aloo Tikki Chaat” that one can find on the road side eatery. This inspired me to try this recipe out in the comfort of my own kitchen. Aloo tikki is a potato patty or cutlet made with boiled potatoes and few spices.
It is served with chickpea curry and yoghurt topped with mint-coriander, tamarind / Imli chutneys. You can further try your hand by stuffing these potato based tikkies with peas or nuts like cashew and raisins. Stuffing varies as per region but the common among all is that, these are always served hot and crispy.
These aloo tikki / potato patties also make perfect fillet between sandwich or burger. Continue reading for the detailed “step by step recipe of Aloo Tikki Chaat”.
