Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by thoroughly washing medium russet potatoes and placing them in a pot of water. Boil or steam the potatoes with skins on for 20–25 minutes, or until they are fork-tender. Once cooked, drain and allow them to cool down completely.
- In a large mixing bowl, take the cooled potatoes and mash them until smooth. Stir in spices like chili powder, ground cumin, and ground ginger, along with chopped onions, green bell pepper, and peas. Mix until well combined.
- Gradually sprinkle in the flour while continuing to mix your potato mixture. Aim for a texture that holds together without being overly sticky; adjust flour as needed.
- Take a small portion of the potato mixture and roll it into a ball in your hand. Gently flatten the ball to create a patty about ½ inch thick and place on a parchment-lined baking tray.
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and bake the patties for 30 minutes, flipping them halfway through.
- Allow your Baked Aloo Tikki to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving warm with your favorite dipping sauces.

Notes
Allow the boiled potatoes to cool completely before mashing to prevent a sticky mixture. Check the consistency while adding flour to help shape perfect patties.
