Indulge in the delightful world of crispy and hot snacks with this mouthwatering recipe - Crispy Bread Tikki! Today, I'm excited to prepare this delectable treat for my beloved granddaughter, Nikitha, who absolutely adores anything crunchy and flavorsome.

Ingredients:

4 medium-sized boiled potatoes

4 slices of bread

1/2 cup of finely chopped onions

A handful of fresh coriander leaves, chopped

1/2 teaspoon of zesty red chili powder

1/2 teaspoon of aromatic garam masala powder

1/2 teaspoon of tangy amchur powder (dry mango powder)

1/2 teaspoon of  turmeric powder

5 to 6 tablespoons of crispy bread crumbs

A pinch of salt, to taste

Oil for deep frying, just enough to achieve the perfect crunch

Preparation Method:

Begin by soaking the bread slices in water briefly and then gently squeezing out the excess moisture, leaving you with softened bread ready to blend harmoniously with the other ingredients.

In a spacious mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, chopped onions, fresh coriander leaves, squeezed bread, turmeric powder, red chili powder, garam masala powder, amchur powder, and a touch of salt, creating a symphony of flavors.

Once all the ingredients are perfectly mingled, shape the mixture into delightful round balls, brimming with scrumptiousness.

Flatten these delectable balls into perfectly round tikkis and place them gently on a waiting plate, eagerly awaiting their golden transformation.

In a sizzling wok, heat the oil to the ideal temperature, ensuring a crispy and inviting texture for our tikkis. Carefully deep-fry the flattened wonders until they achieve a luscious golden hue.

Gently lift the tikkis from the wok and let them rest on a tissue paper, allowing any excess oil to bid adieu, leaving us with perfectly crispy and guilt-free treats.

And now, the moment we've all been waiting for! Serve these delightful treats hot as evening snacks, pairing them with a delightful dip or tangy tomato sauce that will elevate their flavors to new heights.
