Matar Bhari Aloo Tikki (Peas Stuffed Potato Patties)

Matar Bhari Aloo Tikki (Peas Stuffed Potato Patties) is a much-loved dish especially during winter when the market is flooded with fresh green peas. I love green peas and find ways to use them more and more. I have used fresh green peas but you can also use frozen ones.

These karari (crispy) tikkis are so flavorful and delicious. The filling has the sweetness of green peas and raisins, crunch from the cashews, spice from green chills and ginger all in perfect harmony. Soft from inside and crisp from outside these tikkis are a great snack for parties and functions. Serve them with hari chutney and imly chutney. You can also make tikki chaat by adding dhai and bhujiya.

So here is the recipe with the Video as shown above and step by step pictures below for making perfect crispy stuffed tikkis, just like the famous UP chaat walas.
