- Mix it properly and keep aside
- For stuffing, soak, rinse chana dal, add salt and turmeric powder, green chilly and boil it till just cooked (two whistles in pressure cooker)
- Remember we need just cooked chana dal, not mushy, so use very little of water for boiling
- let it cool, then add garam masala powder, and mix it properly
- Now take a small portion of potato mixture, pat it on your palms (greased), place the stuffing of chana dal and roll it back into ball shape
- Now if you have that heart shaped mould that is used for making patties,then use it otherwise just make a tikki shape
- Shallow fry it on a hot griddle, adding some oil (or better, ghee) and tossing it at intervals
- Cook it on medium flame till the surface becomes crisp and brown
- Serve it with chutney,or chickpeas in gravy (chole)
