Is something like your fried potato cake or croquette though much spicy.
Taste's delicious!
Ingredients
1.5kg boiled potatoes, just cooked, skin removed
4 stalks of spring onions
5-6 Indian green chillies, finely chopped
1 large teaspoon finely grated ginger
2tsp salt
1 ½ tsp sugar
1tsp chilli powder
½ tsp ground white pepper
1tsp mango powder
3tbsp plain flour
3tbsp cornflour
1tsp ground black pepper
oil for shallow frying, at least 1½cm
Preparation
Sieve through the plain flour, cornflour and ground black pepper into a bowl and leave aside.
Place the cooked potatoes in a large bowl and sprinkle in all the herbs and spices.
Using a fork break into the potatoes and mix all the ingredients together. You don't want a mash though the potatoes broken into little pieces.
Make little patties around 4cm in diameter and 2½cm thick, leave to one side.
Place the patties into the plain flour mixture and coat well. Shake a little to get rid of any excess flour and place back on a plate.
Heat up the oil in a frying pan on a medium heat, once hot try one to begin with. They should fry very easily, around 3-4 minutes on each side and should brown slightly. Remove to a plate of kitchen towels to drain excess oil.If you are happy then fry the Aloo Tikki in batches of 5-6, otherwise reduce or increase heat slightly.
Serve Hot!
