Aloo tikki

Hi,

     Foodies,

I am here, again with delicious aloo tikkis . ya, my bro favourite aloo tikki.. Sharing  all of you a simple but awesome  one.

I believe that snack with aloo is always be a good option.

Because it's take less  cooking time and easily available  in any one kitchen.

Aloo preparations  is always kids fab too.

Eat aloo tikki with in chaat preparation or simply have with chutney --taste  super awesome. 

As a snack aloo tikkis are always be a rock and every one favourite.

I  am making this tikki using ghee-- you can make in any vegetable oil according to your taste.

I prefer shallow fry for seeking healthy version. You can deep fry this. But before  deep frying this ,use maida - water mixture batter for dipping it and then roll out each tikkis in bread crumbs . after that deep fry these  tikkis and taste the  super tasty aloos tikkis and make ur day really delicious.

Make these  tikkis for your  guest and  I am sure after eating these tikkis you will certainly enjoy the delicious comments from them.
Before making the tikkis ,I want to share the a little goodness of aloo .

*Aloo is very good source of potassium, that help to reduce the blood pressure level.

so guys, don't waste time -- quickly, write down the super easy and tasty tikki recipe  and enjoy the real joy of taste.

*Shallow fry them on medium heat till they golden brown in colour from all the sides .

*Serve hot with (dhania) coriander  chutney or tomato ketchup and (onion cucumber rings--dipped in lemon juice) and enjoy this awesome tikkis.

My mom tips--

* Use less amount of water ,while  boiling the aloos (potatoes) in pressure cooker--because it will take less time to cook.

Example- For 4-5 aloos --use 2 cup of water and pressure cook for 1 or 2 whistle according to the  quality of pressure cooker and company.

So friend, use less amount of water for boiling the aloos  and save gas.

*Adding bread crumbs is must for making tikki , cause it help the potatoes to bind.

* Rolling the tikkis in confloor and resting in refrigerator is must, cause  doing this  help tikkis to bind  and shape and help  not  to stick on pan while shallow frying it and help to maintain a awesome look (golden brown) in colour.
Always maintain medium heat while shallow  frying.

* Use ghee for shallow frying. It will taste  delicious and richer.
