Stuffed Aaloo Tikki
This one’s from the numerous TV channels that I browse. A Sindhi lady, whose name I forget, taught this on one of the channels. As a rule, if I see something interesting I try it and then put it up on the blog. We made it this weekend and even after a sumptuous lunch, it looked tempting enough to be finished off in one serving. So, the baseline is that this thing tastes fabulous.
Ingredients
Boiled potatoes - 2
Green chilies- 2
Ginger – 1 teaspoon
Amchoor powder (raw mango powder) – ½ teaspoon
Coriander powder- ½ teaspoon
Cumin powder – ½ teaspoon
Boiled green peas/ chikpeas (chana) – 1 cup
Bread- 1or 2 slices
Salt to taste
Oil for frying
Method
Take the boiled green peas or chana in a bowl.
Add ginger, green chilies, amchoor powder, coriander powder, salt and cumin powder.
Mash and mix well
Take the boiled potatoes in a separate bowl.
Dip the bread slices in water and squeeze out the water completely from the slices.
Mix this bread into the potatoes and mash it well.
Take a small portion of the potato mixture & roll it into a ball
Using your thumb press in the middle and then using your thumb & index finger make a circular hollow in the dough.
Fill it with the greenpeas mixture and cover from all sides.
Flatten it a little to make an oblong shape tikki
