Crispy Potato Cutlet Recipe: Aloo Tikki

10 medium-sized, crispy on the outside and soft inside, with the aroma of cumin seeds and coriander leaves.
One thing I've learned about cooking is that simplicity and minimal ingredients go a long way. In today's fast-paced world, a well-stocked pantry can make cooking dishes like crispy potato cutlets, or aloo tikki, a breeze. While the potatoes simmer, gather the rest of the ingredients. Once mashed, simply combine everything, shape into balls, flatten, and fry until golden.

These vegetarian (EASIEST MALAYSIAN VEGETARIAN NASI LEMAK) cutlets are sensational - crispy on the outside and soft inside. Did you know bread slices can act as a perfect binding agent? Enjoy them hot with a mint dip (TANDOORI SALMON & MINT CHUTNEY) or chili sauce for snacks, or pair them with sides for a hearty meal. Yummlicious!
