    1. Yes, you can definitely stuff aloo tikki with paneer. Just crumble some paneer finely or grate it and mix it with a bit of chopped coriander, green chilies, salt, and a pinch of garam masala or chaat masala. Shape the aloo mixture into a ball, flatten slightly, add a small spoon of the paneer stuffing in the center, and seal it well before flattening again. Then shallow fry as usual.

  1. Thank you! Absolutely delicious! I had them last night as a side dish to a curry and tonight I had them with fried eggs. I have one question … can you freeze them once cooked?5 stars

    1. Thank you! So glad you enjoyed the tikkis. Yes, you can freeze them after cooking, but they won’t stay as crisp when reheated; the texture softens a bit. For best results, it’s better to freeze them before frying. That way, they turn out nice and crisp. I hope this helps.

  12. Can I use cornflour,instead of corn starch for the alootikis?
    What s the difference,I would like to know.Thankyou

    1. corn flour as we call in india is corn starch only. outside india, its called as corn starch. corn starch is white colored flour. whereas corn flour as its called outside india or maize flour is yellow colored flour. you can use corn flour and even corn starch.

  14. nice and looked easy to me but when I tried it my tikki just broke and the stuff got messed up please help.

    1. some more corn flour would have helped the tikki to hold shape. when the binding agent is less in tikki or cutlets, then some more always can be added.

  15. Hi, thanks fro sharing this easy recipe, I have tried it with rice flour, it became tikki but not very crispy and the edges were more softer, please share me how to improve.4 stars

    1. the secret in getting the tikki crispy, is to shallow fry and on a low flame. slow cooking makes the edges and top crispy. you can also coat the tikkis with breadcrumbs or crushed corn flakes and this would also give a crisp texture.

    1. yes you can prepare the aloo tikki mixture in the night. keep in the fridge. before preparing the tikkis, bring the mixture to room temperature. or else they will absorb extra oil.

  19. Hi Dassana,
    Thanks for this recipe, it turns out great. I made 1 tikki with fresh mixture, and the other 1 I refrigerated for next day. There was a difference between 2 patties at the time of frying. The fresh 1 had a solid crust from top which was gud, but the other 1 came out soggy.
    Can you please tell me the recipe of tikki which I can refrigerate and have a solid crust from top at the time of frying.

    1. welcome vineet. thanks for sharing your positive feedback on aloo tikki. before using refrigerated tikki mixture, bring it at room temperature by keeping it out for some time. 2nd thing you can do it to roll the mixture in bread crumbs and then fry it. it will give some crispness. but best is to make fresh aloo tikki recipe.

  20. Thanks Dassana for such good recipes. The way u explained it is awesome. Please tellme some receipes for kids.

    1. thank you vibha… i would have written about some kid recipes…. but i do not have enough time to do so. all the recipes that are waiting to be posted by me are general recipes.. not specifically meant for kids…
