Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and roll each portion into a round flat tikki. Heat the oil in a deep non-stick kadhai and deep-fry a few tikkis at a time, till they turn golden brown in colour from all the sides. Drain on an absorbent paper and serve immediately with green chutney.

What are Tikkis? Think starter, and tikki is one of the first options that comes to anybody’s mind! Loved by people of all age groups, tikkis are small, round or oval-shaped snacks, measuring around two or three inches in diameter. Basically, you make a dough of boiled potatoes, sprouts, dals, veggies, herbs and spices in whatever combination you like, shape them into balls, flatten them between your palms and cook them.
You can deep-fry or shallow-fry the tikkis. Each of these methods gives you a different texture. Try the Corn and Capsicum Tikki, a deep-fried delight that combines spicy capsicum with juicy corn. Paneer Tikki is one of the most popular examples of shallow-fried tikkis. This method of frying the tikkis in broad shallow pans with lesser amount of oil is especially suitable for soft and fragile tikkis as it is easier to flip over the tikkis and cook them on both sides.

I was so surprised with this recipe. Without using potato or any other binding agent, this tikkis are made. When you have this tikki, you wont feel like anything is missing. The corn and capsicum with chillies makes this recipe flawless. I love Tarla Dalal for giving us such recipes, which we cannot even think of.

This recipe has been tried here and they were not hard. However make sure you deep-fry the tikkis on a medium or a high flame and not on a slow flame. Do try it again and do let us know how they were. Happy Cooking !!
