Vegan Aloo Tikki - Spiced Potato Patties with Homemade Coriander Chutney. A Vegan and Gluten Free version of a delicious Indian street snack. #vegan #alootikki #samosa #vegansamosa #indian #potato #healthy #quick #spices #peas #veganrecipesOne of my favourite things to order when it comes to Indian take out is Vegan Aloo Tikki. Aloo Tikki has to be pretty up there for me, right after those giant deep fried, will give me love handles tomorrow Samosas that you dip in Tamarind Chutney and god knows what else (yes, I am a disgrace to all Indians, I know). For those who don’t know, Aloo Tikki is a popular street food that they sell in India, made up of leftover mashed Potatoes, a divine blend of indian spices and any vegetables of choice. I like to think of Aloo Tikki as an easy version of a Samosa – all that moreish Potato filling without the hassle of origami Samosa wrapping and deep frying.

A Vegan and Gluten Free version of a delicious Indian street snack. #vegan #alootikki #samosa #vegansamosa #indian #potato #healthy #quick #spices #peas #veganrecipesInstead of spending $30-$40 on take out and having to pay that pesky Uber Eats delivery fee this week, I thought I’d try my best at recreating my favourite Vegan Aloo Tikki’s at home instead (is “Tikki’s” even a word???). Now, the ingredients that you need for this Aloo Tikki recipe are so basic that you probably already have everything you need in your store cupboard/pantry.

To the onion, we add Salt, Pepper, Ground Cumin, Ground Coriander, Garam Masala, Minced Garlic, Minced Ginger, Chilli Powder and Green Chilli. Once everything is combined and lightly fried off, you add this spiced mixture to a bowl of already boiled, peeled and mashed Potatoes, then mix well. Finally, throw in some fresh Cilantro/Coriander and Green Peas into the mixture along with a touch of Rice Flour for binding and we’re ready to rumble!

A Vegan and Gluten Free version of a delicious Indian street snack. #vegan #alootikki #samosa #vegansamosa #indian #potato #healthy #quick #spices #peas #veganrecipesAll we’re left to do now is to shape the potato mixture into patties and pan fry them in some oil until they turn golden and delicious. Some people choose to deep fry their Aloo Tikki’s, but in the name of health, I have chosen to pan fry them on each side instead. Once crispy and golden, you’ll want to enjoy these Vegan Aloo Tikki‘s (or naked Samosas as I call them because I’m a dirty bitch), with my Coriander Chutney recipe, or serve them with some Tomato Sauce. Is Tomato Sauce traditional? F*ck knows, and who cares.

A Vegan and Gluten Free version of a delicious Indian street snack. #vegan #alootikki #samosa #vegansamosa #indian #potato #healthy #quick #spices #peas #veganrecipesBecause I have used Rice Flour as a binding agent in this recipe, these Aloo Tikki’s are not just Vegan, but also Gluten Free. For those who aren’t concerned about Gluten, feel free to replace the Rice Flour with regular All Purpose Flour or Cornstarch.

You can use these patties in place of Falafels in a wrap or sandwich.

      I loved the name. This looks delicious! I’ll be adding it to my Eid menu, for sure! And I think it’s a sign that I have all of the ingredients in my kitchen right now. My husband and I might get an appetizer before dinner tonight!:D

      I recently came across this recipe looking for gluten free recipes. I decided to try this because I haven't make a lot of vegan Indian dishes and wanted to give it a try! This dish is flavorful and absolutely delicious!
