Instructions

  1. Rinse the sweet potatoes thoroughly in water.

  11. Pan fry the patties with oil till both the sides are well browned.
  12. Garnish with some coriander leaves.

Notes

  • If the mixture feels a little loose, then add some more arrowroot flour, buckwheat flour, amaranth flour or water chestnut flour.
  • When making these cutlets for Hindu fast or vrat, add edible rock salt only. Don't use regular salt for fasting food.
  • If you are not making these tikki for religious fasting, then instead of rock salt you can use regular salt.
  • If you don't have dried mango powder, then add a bit of lemon juice.
  • The spice powders and lemon juice can be adjusted as per your taste preferences.
