And if this Aloo Tikka (mashed potato cakes with herbs and spices) is served as street food as it’s rumored, then North India seems like the next best stop for me on our summer travels. New Itinerary: It looks like the suburban Indian restaurant will have to suffice. Might as well throw in an extra order of naan while we’re at it. These cute little (or large) nuggets of fried goodness are bursting with flavor. Ginger, cilantro, garam masala and cumin give a spicy punch to the potato and pea “dough”. And while they took a little bit of prep time (peeling, boiling, and mashing the potatoes) the taste was well worth the effort. Although I’d still prefer to buy them on the streets of India. I adapted this recipe from one that I found on a great blog, My Saffron Kitchen. As I was “adapting”, I thought to myself: who are you to be making adjustments to an Indian recipe? Annnd I never really came up with a good answer to that. So enjoy my Minnesotan twist on this Indian Street Food! If you ever go to India, maybe you could ship some Aloo Tikki back to Minnesota?
