Description

Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, these golden Aloo Kababs (Potato Cutlets) are packed with warm spices and comforting flavors. Perfect for tea-time snacks, party platters, or Ramadan Iftar tables.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium Potatoes, boiled and mashed
  • 1 small Onion, finely chopped
  • 1 Green chili, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh coriander, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon Red chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Cumin powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Chaat masala
  • Salt to taste
  • 1/2 cup Bread crumbs
  • 1 tablespoon Cornflour
  • Oil for shallow frying

Instructions

  1. Set your frying pan or skillet on medium heat and let it warm while you prepare the patties.
  2. In a mixing bowl, mash the boiled potatoes. Add onions, green chili, coriander, spices, cornflour, and salt. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
  3. Pour oil into your frying pan, enough to shallow fry the kababs. Heat it gently while shaping the cutlets.
  4. Take a portion of the potato mix and shape into flat round cutlets. Dredge them lightly in bread crumbs.
  5. Carefully place cutlets into the hot oil. Fry on medium heat until both sides are golden brown and crisp, flipping once.
  6. Transfer fried kababs to a plate lined with paper towel to absorb excess oil.
  7. Plate up with mint chutney or ketchup and enjoy while still warm and crispy.

Notes

  • Use starchy potatoes like Russet or Yukon Gold for better texture.
  • Chill the shaped kababs for 20 minutes before frying to prevent breaking.
  • For extra crunch, double coat with bread crumbs.
  • Add grated cheese in the center for a gooey surprise.
