In a bowl take mashed potatoes, peas, coriander leaves, chaat masala, chopped green chilis, grated ginger, red chili powder, corn- flour, breadcrumbs and salt.

Mix well and divide the mixture into 12 equal sized balls.

Gently flatten into tikki shape and keep aside.

Heat oil in a pan and shallow fry aloo tikkis till both sides are golden brown in color. You can deep fry or air fry them for a healthier version.

Once done transfer the aloo tikkis on a kitchen towel so that excess oil is absorbed.

Place the tikkis on a serving plate and pair them with tomato ketchup or tamarind chutney.
