Yummy Crispy Aloo Tikki
About
In Mumbai, India a popular version of aloo tikki is served with a spicy curry and various chutneys. It is called "Ragda pattice" and is sold on the various chaat stalls throughout the city and especially the Chowpatti Beach. Aloo tikki is mashed potato patties mixed with coriander, peas and spices, deep-fried in oil. Some North Indian dhabas or café-style eateries will sandwich the aloo in bread. In the United Kingdom, vegetable tikki is available from delicatessen counters at various shops. It is very popular in the East Midlands area. As with the majority of cultural and linguistic factors – barring other influences – this cuisine can be found in areas that are essentially all parts of the India. Regional "variants" are prevalent due to the mass size of the country. For example, in Mumbai, aloo tikki is made up of mainly locally grown spices such as turmeric as opposed to Bangalore, where its significance is placed more on the coriander spice. In Delhi, Uttar Pradesh is known for its aloo tikki and other chaats [1] Chef Manish Mehrotra probably best describes it by saying "It’s a potato tikki fried on a tava, with silky yogurt and grainy masala. It’s khatta, meetha, and a shade bitter around the charred corners of the tikki — it’s a complete dish." [2]
