Aloo Tikkis (Indian Potato Cakes) Recipe

Boil the potatoes until fork-tender.

As they cool, dice the onions and mince the jalapeno. Saute' them with salt in canola oil just until the onions begin to turn golden brown.

Add the frozen peas and heat through until they're as cooked as you like them.

Peel and mash the potatoes in a large bowl. Add the onion and jalapeno mixture, and mix well. Add the amchur to the mix. Mix in cilantro and bread crumbs as needed to hold shape.

Form patties out of the potato mixture and pan-fry them until golden brown.

Cook's Note: Serve the tikkis plain or with tamarind sauce and green chutney. I found that plum sauce is a good substitute that's readily available in stores. Ketchup is a nice condiment for these as well. You can also serve one or two tikkis over pasta and tomato sauce. They are often traditionally served with cholay, a chick pea dish. Hope you enjoy!
