Tikkis are a great snack. They are almost like mini Hash browns.
This simple yet tasty potato snack can
be made in just a few minutes and is worth the effort. Serve
with your favorite chutney as an appetizer or kids love it with
ketchup. It’s a great after school snack. Make the tikkis
ahead of time and heat them in the microwave to serve up.
- 4 large
Potatoes boiled, peeled and grated
- 3
tablespoons Corn flour
- Salt to
taste
Add the
corn flour and salt to the grated potatoes and mix well. It is
important that the mixture become dough like and not crumble. If the
dough is crumbly then add more corn flour.
Note: If corn flour
is unavailable then you may substitute regular plain
flour.
Take 2
table spoons of the potato mixture and roll into a ball, flatten
on the palm of your hand. Again, the dough should not
crumble.
Shallow
fry the patties/"tikkis" over medium heat until golden
brown and crisp on both sides. You may do this ahead of time.
Place the tikkis on a non-stick pan and cover with foil. Heat at 275
degrees for 15 minutes before serving.
Serve hot
with Chole and mint chutney or tamarind chutney.
