Chole Tikki Chaat | Aloo Tikki Chaat | Street Food

Aloo tikkis are one of the most common and easy snacks to prepare. Since this takes a little preparation ahead of time, I make a whole batch of tikki's and freeze it. This comes handy over the weekends or specially when you have sudden guests at home. 


How To Freeze Aloo Tikki:

  1. Follow the recipe to make the aloo tikki as mentioned below. 
  2. Roll the patties in the bread crumbs and arrange it in a plate. 
  3. Keep this plate in the freezer until the patties are completely set or frozen. 
  4. Slowly remove each pattie and store it in a big ziplock packet. 
  5. In case you want to store it in a box, put a layer of patties at the bottom. Cover it with butter paper and then arrange the next layer. This way it will be easy to remove the patties without getting stuck to each other. 
  6. Before using, thaw the patties and allow it to come to room temperature.


Ingredients: 
4 large size potatoes, boiled, peeled, mashed
1/2 cup green peas, boiled,
4 tbsp dry breadcrumbs for binding+ 4 tbsp coating,
1 tbsp corn flour,
1 tsp grated ginger,
2 tbsp coriander leaves, finely chopped,
green chillies, finely chopped,
1/2 tsp garam masala powder,
1/2 tsp red chilli powder,
1 tsp lemon juice or dry mango powder,
1/2 tsp sugar, optional,
Salt to taste,
Oil for shallow frying


Method:


  1. In a bowl, mix all the above ingredients to form a smooth dough like mixture. Divide mixture into 12 equal portions and roll them into small size balls.
  2. Take each ball and gently press it between your palms and make a round shaped 1/2-inch thick pattie. 
  3. Coat prepared pattie with breadcrumbs on all sides by rolling it in breadcrumbs filled plate.
  4. Heat non-stick flat pan (tawa) or and  shallow fry the patties.
  5. Transfer prepared tikki's to a plate. Serve hot and crispy aloo tikki's with tomato ketchup or green chutney.

So I gave these tikki's a slight twist and added leftover punjabi chole on top of each pattie. Added some chopped tomatoes, onions and fresh coriander and served it hot. 

You could also drizzle some tamarind chutney and green chutney on top of it. You could also add thin curd and some chaat masala powder to make it even more spicy and tangy. The possibilities are limitless.

Enjoy :-)

Low Calorie No-Bake Chocolate Cheesecake

As the post title suggests, Low Calorie No-Bake Chocolate Cheesecake, you must be wondering, if there is chocolate and its a cheesecake, how could it be low calorie - well, its not really low calorie, but it would be definitely lower than an actual "cheesecake" :) This cheesecake is a fast track recipe which can be thrown in within a few minutes. I don't follow the classic baked cheesecake method. I've tried earlier and failed. But later I came across the no-bake cheesecake recipe and that became the base for all kinds of cheesecakes that I have prepared earlier. Coming to the ingredients, I don't use cream cheese which is the base for any cheesecake, because, firstly, its very high in calories and secondly its very not easily available here. So see we saved some calories there, with a little price paid on the taste. However, I can bet most people won't be able to make out the difference whether there is cream cheese or something else. I'm preparing...
