Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Boil potatoes in salted water until a fork pierces them easily, ~12 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Drain potatoes, let cool 2 minutes, then peel and mash into a coarse paste.

  3. Step 3

    Fold flour, green chili, and 0.25 tsp chaat masala into mashed potatoes with a pinch of salt.

  4. Step 4

    Shape mixture into 4 patties, 2.5 inches wide. Press gently so they hold together.

  5. Step 5

    Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high until it shimmers. Pan-fry patties 3 minutes per side until deep golden.

  6. Step 6

    Stir remaining 0.25 tsp chaat masala into yogurt. Serve tikki warm with yogurt alongside.
