Aloo Tikki (Pakistani style mashed potato patties)

Ingredients

• 3-4 potatoes boiled and roughly mashed (no need to make it smooth)
• 1 tsp salt or to taste
• 1 tsp paprika
• 1/2-1 tsp chili powder (adjust to taste)
• 1 tsp coriander powder
• 1/4 tsp turmeric powder
• 1-2 green chillies chopped (adjust to your taste)
• 1 tbsp cornstarch
• 1-2 eggs beaten in a bowl for dipping patties
• Oil (enough for shallow frying)
• Handful of fresh chopped cilantro

Method

1. Combine all the ingredients above except for oil and eggs in a large bowl and mix well (use your hands if need be).
2. Form into patties.
3. Dip the patties into the egg until lightly coated.
4. Heat oil in a large frying pan on med heat. Once hot, add patties in a single layer ( do not overcrowd) and shallow fry both sides until golden brown. Place on a plate lined with paper towel to absorb any extra oil. Serve with your fav chutneys and enjoy!
