Aloo Tikki is a popular North Indian snack made from spiced mashed potatoes, shaped into round patties, and shallow-fried until golden and crispy. The filling typically consists of boiled potatoes mixed with ingredients like peas, onions, coriander, ginger, green chilies, and a variety of spices such as cumin, garam masala, and turmeric. Sometimes, the tikkis are stuffed with fillings like spiced paneer or chutneys. Aloo Tikki is often served with tangy tamarind chutney, mint chutney, or yogurt, making it a flavorful and satisfying dish. It is commonly enjoyed as a street food or appetizer.
