Peties

Ingredients:

For the patties:

4 medium-sized potatoes (boiled and mashed) 2 tbsp cornflour or bread crumbs (for binding) 1-2 green chilies (finely chopped) 1 tsp ginger (grated or finely chopped) 1/2 tsp red chili powder 1/2 tsp cumin powder 1/2 tsp garam masala 1/2 tsp chaat masala 2 tbsp fresh coriander leaves (chopped) Salt to taste For shallow frying:

Oil as needed Instructions: 1. Prepare the potato mixture: Boil the potatoes until soft. Peel and mash them thoroughly. Avoid lumps. Add chopped green chilies, ginger, cumin powder, red chili powder, garam masala, chaat masala, and salt.

Mix in cornflour or breadcrumbs for binding. Add fresh coriander and mix well to form a dough. 2. Shape the patties: Take a small portion of the potato mixture and roll it into a ball. Flatten the ball gently to form a round patty. Repeat for the remaining mixture. 3. Fry the patties:

Heat a non-stick pan or tawa on medium heat. Add a small amount of oil for shallow frying. Place the patties on the hot pan and cook until golden and crisp on one side (about 3-4 minutes).

Flip and cook the other side until evenly crispy. Add more oil if needed. 4. Serve: Serve hot with green chutney, tamarind chutney, or ketchup.

You can also use them in burgers or chaat preparations like aloo tikki chaat. Enjoy your homemade aloo patties!
