Samak Aloo Tikki- Crisp and delicious patties made with barnyarn millet,potato and spices (food for fasting)

Samk Aloo Tikki- Most of the people in North India fast during Navratri and eat only satvik food as grains and pulses are prohibited during fasting .this sama and potato tikki is a favourite fasting food of my family.

Sabudana(sago),Singhora ka atta(Water chestnut flour),kuttu(buck wheat flour), Sama(Barnyarn millet ),Rajgiri atta,Ramdana are commonly used  for making pattices, pooris and pilafs.

All fruits can be used but in vegetables only Potato,sweet potato,colocasia ,yellow pumpkin,yam,bottle gourd,cucumber,raw banana are prefered,and only some selected spices can be used during fasting i.e sendha namak(rock salt),pepper powder,mango powder,asafoetida and cumin seeds.But it may vary from region to region and family traditions and rituals.

I often make sabudana vadas but today I wanted to try something different, so just tried this sama aur aloo ki tikki and it turn out crisp and delicious,we all loved this new and delicious recipe:)

    Hi Ruchi.thanks for trying and liking the recipe..may be you cooked them on high heat or used very less oil or ghee to shallow fry them,I cooked them on medium to low flame and used enough ghee so the pattice are almost half dipped in it.
    take care
