Step-by-Step Recipe

Recipe

- Start by washing the chickpea lentils and boiling them in a cup of water until they are soft. Once done, turn off the heat.
- Transfer the lentils to a mixer and grind them without adding water. Next, boil the potatoes until soft and mash them.

- Combine the mashed potatoes with the ground lentils, adding in the onion, coriander leaves, green chilies, turmeric powder, chaat masala, garam masala, ginger, and salt to create a smooth mixture.
- Take small portions of the mixture and shape them into tikkis. Repeat this process until all the mixture is used. Coat each tikki in breadcrumbs and fry them in medium heat oil.

Once they are golden brown on both sides, remove them from the oil. Serve the chana dal tikkis hot with green chutney for a delightful snack.
