Gajar Aloo Tikki (Carrot Potato Fritters)
Make these delicious Carrot Potato Fritters tonight for a healthy, crunchy snack that everyone will love!
Start by peeling the potatoes and carrots. Grate them using a box grater or food processor.
In a large mixing bowl, add the grated potatoes and carrots. Then, finely chop the onion and cilantro and add them to the bowl.
Mix in the flour, salt, pepper, cumin, and turmeric. Combine everything until well mixed.
Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Make sure there is enough oil to cover the bottom.
Take small portions of the mixture and flatten them into fritters. Carefully place them in the hot oil.
Cook each fritter for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Remove the fritters from the pan and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce. Enjoy!
