Instructions

1. Soak Chickpeas Overnight

   Place the dried chickpeas in a large bowl, cover with plenty of water and let them soak for at least 12 hours or overnight.

   Time: PT12H

2. Pressure Cook Chickpeas

   Drain the soaked chickpeas, add them to the pressure cooker with 3 cups water, 1 tsp salt and ½ tsp turmeric powder. Cook on high pressure for 15 minutes, then allow natural pressure release.

   Time: PT20M

   Temperature: high pressure

3. Add Tomatoes and Aromatics

   Open the cooker, add chopped tomatoes, grated ginger and finely chopped green chilies. Close the lid and simmer on low heat for 5‑7 minutes so the tomatoes soften and their skins loosen.

   Time: PT7M

4. Cool and Mash

   Turn off the heat and let the mixture cool to room temperature. Open the lid, remove the softened tomato skins, and mash the tomatoes with a potato masher. Optionally add finely chopped onion or garlic if you like.

   Time: PT10M

5. Season the Chickpea Mixture

   Stir in cumin powder, red chili powder, amchur powder, coriander powder, Kashmiri red chili powder, black salt, chole masala and additional salt to taste. Cook on low flame for 5 minutes, stirring continuously.

   Time: PT5M

6. Mash Boiled Potatoes

   In a separate bowl, mash the boiled potatoes until completely smooth with no lumps. Add 4 tbsp corn starch and mix well.

   Time: PT5M

7. Combine Chickpea and Potato Mixtures

   Add the spiced chickpea mash to the potato mash. Mix thoroughly until a cohesive, slightly sticky dough forms. If the mixture feels too wet, sprinkle a little extra corn starch; if too dry, add a teaspoon of water.

   Time: PT5M

8. Shape and Lightly Coat Patties

   Divide the dough into equal portions (about 8‑10). Roll each portion into a smooth ball, then flatten to a round patty about 1 cm thick. Lightly dust both sides with corn starch or the prepared bread crumbs.

   Time: PT5M

9. Fry the Tikki

   Heat 3 tbsp ghee in a flat skillet over medium heat. Place the patties in the pan, leaving space between them. Fry 3‑4 minutes on each side until deep golden‑brown and crisp. Press gently with a spatula to ensure even browning.

   Time: PT12M

   Temperature: medium heat

10. Assemble the Chaat

    Arrange the fried tikkis on a serving plate. Top each with a spoonful of boiled potatoes, a drizzle of yogurt, tamarind chutney and green chutney, a squeeze of lemon juice, a pinch of chaat masala, chopped onion, fresh coriander and sev if using. Serve immediately.

    Time: PT5M
