Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for the Perfect Aloo Tikki Chaat
- For extra crispy tikkis, add a tablespoon of rice flour to the potato mixture.
- If you don't have tamarind chutney, you can substitute with a lemon wedge or a mango chutney.
- For a spicier chaat, add a pinch of green chilies to the potato mixture or use a spicier chili powder.
- Feel free to experiment with other toppings, such as sev (crispy chickpea noodles), pomegranate seeds, or chopped tomatoes.
