Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 2 Cup Boiled And Mashed Arbi
  • 2 Tbsp Besan/Chickpea flour/Gram flour
  • 1 Tbsp Rice Flour
  • 1 Tsp Finely Chopped Green Chilies
  • 1 Tsp Ginger, chopped
  • 1 Tsp Chopped garlic
  • ½ Tsp Garam masala powder
  • 1 Tbsp Chopped Fresh Cilantro
  • Salt, according to your taste, always use mild salt in this tikki (less than you prefer)
  • ½ Tsp Chat Masala
  • 1 Tsp Lime juice
  • ½ Tsp Red Chili Powder

Method
 

  1. Washing arbi is really important. Then place them in an instant pot, pressure cooker, or in a pot to boil.
  2. Cook them till they are soft/fork tender, but not very mushy.
  3. I cooked my medium size arbi in an instant pot for 3 minutes.
  4. Peel the skin after cooling them off.
  5. Mash it with a fork or masher to make a smooth dough.
  6. Take a big bowl and mix arbi with everything except gram flour and rice flour.
  7. Start adding gram flour and rice flour little by little. This step is necessary because sometimes arbi has more water and sometimes less.
  8. If your arbi feels dry use less gram flour and rice flour.
  9. Make small patties by applying some oil on your palm.
  10. Pre heat the air fryer to 380 F.
  11. Spray air fryer with some oil spray.
  12. Place patties on the grill and air fry till they look crispy to your liking. Turn it over once in between. Mine took around 7-8 minutes. Your time can vary depending on your patties.
  13. Serve them hot with any dip or chutney.
  14. Enjoy!
