Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Beetroot Thai Tikkis
- For extra crispy tikkis, ensure you squeeze out as much moisture from the beetroot and onion as possible.
- Adjust the amount of green chilies according to your spice preference. Start with one and add more if desired.
- If the mixture is too wet, add a little more breadcrumbs to help it bind.
- Serve immediately for the best taste and texture. You can also store leftover tikkis in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
