Tikki Chaat Bowls 

Ingredients ( makes 6- 8 bowls, size 3-4 inches) 

Potato bowls

3 medium sized potatoes, boiled and peeled 
1/4 cup chopped fresh coriander leaves
1/2 tsp chaat masala
1/2 tsp garam masala
1 tsp chilli flakes
1 tsp cumin seeds
2 tbsp rice flour
1/4 cup bread crumbs 
Salt to taste
2-3 tbsp oil for greasing

Mix everything except oil. Divide in 6-8 equal parts depending upon the size of mold you are going to use. 

✳️NOW THIS A VERY IMPORTANT STEP

(If you skip this you will not get the shape) 

Preheat Air fryer to 400. Air fry potato balls for 6-7 minutes (not the potato bowls) at 400.

Take them out and place in the bowl you are using as mold. Make potato bowls using the handle of a rolling pin. 
as shown in video. 

Place them in air fryer again and air fry for 4-5 mins at 400 till they turn golden. 

Take them out and let them cool down. 

NOTE: 

*️⃣make sure you dip the handle of the rolling pin in water. It will prevent it from sticking to the potato ball.

*️⃣Make sure to grease the bowl you are using as mold. Alternatively use rice flour to dust the mold. This will prevent the potato mixture from sticking to the sides of the mold. Use a small bowl.

*️⃣You can also use cupcake molds and bake the potato bowls in them. 

*️⃣You can wash the potato bowls with oil or butter before air frying or baking for better taste. 

*️⃣ Bowls should not be too thin or they will become chewy.
