A spicy tangy Indian veg patty that can be enjoyed with green chutneys or as chat with some sweet and tangy chutneys and sev on top for sure is a fav for all! This chana aloo Tikki is so yum with a nice kick of spices and veggies which is crispy from the outside and juicy melt in mouth texture!
Kashif love having it by stuffing inside a bun with some labneh or mayo along with some veggies! That was really yum! You can use my Tandoori potato slider spreads here which goes perfectly well! So do let me know which one is your favorite way of having tikkis!
