How To Make Leftover Roti Ki Tikki

Jump to Recipe
Total Time: 25 minutes

Roti Ki Tikki, as the name denotes, is a brilliant way of using leftover Chapatis to create a yummy appetizer. You must be thinking why the sudden use of leftover rotis. I personally feel that food is for gnawing and not for wasting. When you look at this recipe, you will understand how delicious dishes can still be made with leftovers, without compromising on nutrient quotient.

There are some more tikki recipes such as Aloo tikki, Aloo palak ki tikki, Capsicum masala tikki.

Roti Ki Tikki is just another form of cutlet, made from powdered Chapati and loads of veggies. Some of you might try to relate it with Aloo Tikki, but that is not the case. I have replaced it with other fresh vegetables and taken the risk to show my culinary skills. You will find chopped onion, cabbages, coriander leaves and grated paneer in its batter. I personally feel that this recipe demands a smooth texture, so I have used fresh cream or ‘malai’ in it. However, to bind this eclectic mixture, I have used corn flour since it acts as a thickening agent.

If you are a health freak, as my husband, then I would suggest dabbing the extra oil with a tissue. In this way, you can make it a safe snack for your loved ones.

 

There is a story behind every recipe of mine and this one is no exception. So it all started when my husband tasted Aloo Tikki at his friend’s birthday party. He really adores this snack, so he urged me to cook it for him at home. This was when I thought of giving that titbit a touch of my creativity. I immediately replaced the aloo with a mix of veggies for preparing the batter. I remember how much he praised me, for my culinary skills, and still does.

A platter of Roti Ki Tikkis definitely has the power to captivate the hearts of foodies. If you are on diet plan or even if you are not, this cutlet is worth trying. I know how people denounce deeply fried snacks, but indulging in such sinful desires is perfectly fine on selected days.

Consuming the same regular meals every day might just bore you so it is better to prepare something different and leftover Roti Ki Tikki might just suffice your needs. These golden brown crusty cutlets can also be put in sandwiches to put together a yummy lunch box recipe. I am sure your kids will love it. However, when you make it as an evening snack, I would suggest serving it hot with zesty green chutney or tangy tomato sauce or rather a fiery schezwan sauce.
