Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Aloo Tikkis
- For extra crispy Tikkis, you can add a tablespoon of all-purpose flour to the mixture.
- Don't overcrowd the pan while frying. This will ensure even cooking and prevent the Tikkis from becoming soggy.
- If you prefer a healthier option, you can shallow fry the Tikkis instead of deep frying.
- Adjust the amount of spices according to your taste preference. For a milder flavor, reduce the amount of chili powder.
