Appetizers recipes

Crispy spicy famous Indian street food . “Aloo” means potato, and the word “tikki” means a small cutlet or croquette. It is easy to cook and involves a shallow fry technique. All the ingredients are easily available and you can prepare it in your kitchen. Tikki is served best when hot. Tikki rolled into small balls is a good appetizer and can made large for veggie burgers.

There are two versions of Vegetable Manchurian, wet and dry. Made with generous amount of garlic and ginger and flavored with soy sauce and vinegar, the wet Vegetable Manchurian (with gravy) complements steamed white rice and is best when drizzled on a serving of steaming hot rice, fried rice or noodles. The dry Vegetable Manchurian is best served as an appetizer and is a favorite in our home.

Contrary to what you make think, not all Spring Rolls are deep-fried. They can be served fresh as well, which is a lovely option for an appetizer or light meal this summer. It’s quite an extensive list of ingredients, but if you are a fan of Thai cooking, it’s likely you have most of them in your pantry or fridge already. The preparation is a simple whisk, toss, hydrate, roll. And our special touch? We added a peanut sauce to make a “Pad Thai” version, as well as some chillies. Stop, drop and roll – these babies are on fire!
