- 3/4 Cup Soya Chunks
- 3/2 Cup Boiled Potato (Grated)
- 1/4 Cup Onion (Chopped)
- 1/2 Tsp garlic (Finely chopped)
- 5/2 Tsp Mint leaves (Dry)
- 1 Tsp Ginger (Finely chopped)
- 1 Tsp Green Chili (Chopped)
- 1 Tsp Salt
- 1/2 Tsp Red Chili Powder
- 1/2 Tsp Garam Masala
- 2 Cup Oil (Or enough for Frying)
- Soak Soya Chunks in Hot water for 10 minute. They will puff up after soaking.
- Drain out Water and squeeze out rest of the Water from Soya chunks(as shown in the video).
- Squeeze out all the Water from them. Once done, keep them aside in a sieve to dry.After 10 min., grind them into a paste.
- Now add boiled Potatoes, Ginger, Green Chili, Onion, Garlic & Mint leaves in soya paste.
- Add Salt, Red Chili Powder & Garam Masala. Mix well. Once mixing is done, we will start making the Tikkis.
- Take small amount of mixture in your hand and try to give a round shape.
- Once you achieve a round shape, press it a bit from the center with the help of your palm.
- You can make more tikkis from the rest of the mixture in similar fashion.
- Take a frying pan with flat base, add enough Oil so that your at-least half of the tikki’s height is submerged in oil for shallow frying. Heat it on high flame.
- Oil will take about 3-4 min. to get hot. Now turn the stove on medium flame and add Tikkis carefully.
- Fry on Medium flame Only. Once you see the bottom turning golden brown, flip it to fry from other side too.
- All Tikkis have achieved the golden color, now take them out of the Oil.
- Soya Tikkis are ready to enjoy with any Sauce of your choice like, Amchoor/Tamarind Sauce, Coriander/Mint Sauce or Tomato Sauce.
- You can also try with bread or Chhole.
- If you sandwich the Tikki in Bread, you will get Tikki Toast. Or if you sandwich it in the burger then you will get Burger.
- Soya tikki is high in dense calories and should be eaten in low proportion, if you are on dieting.
- It should be served fresh as and when it is fried. If you try to refrigerate, it will lose its crispness later.
