Ingredients
- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- 1 cup Green peas
- 0.5 cup Fresh cilantro
- 1 large Green chili
- 1 inch piece Ginger
- 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Garam masala
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 4 tablespoons Cooking oil
Directions
Step 1
Peel and roughly chop the potatoes. Boil them in a pot of water for 10-15 minutes until tender. Drain and set aside to cool.
Step 2
Steam or microwave the green peas until tender, about 3-5 minutes, and set them aside.
Step 3
In a large bowl, mash the cooled potatoes, making sure there are no large lumps.
Step 4
Finely chop the cilantro, green chili, and ginger. Add them to the mashed potatoes along with the steamed green peas.
Step 5
Add the cumin seeds, coriander powder, red chili powder, turmeric powder, garam masala, and salt to the potato mixture and mix well to combine.
Step 6
Stir in the lemon juice and cornstarch. Mix until all ingredients are evenly incorporated to form a cohesive dough-like mixture.
Step 7
Divide the mixture into 8 equal parts and shape them into round, flat patties (tikkis) about 1/2 inch thick.
Step 8
Heat the cooking oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Step 9
Carefully place the tikkis in the skillet, cooking in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding. Fry each patty for 3-4 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Step 10
Transfer the cooked tikkis onto a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Step 11
Serve hot as a snack or appetizer with your favorite chutney or yogurt dip.
