2. Meethi Chutney – Heat ghee in a pan. Add astoefida, cumid seeds and ginger. Let them warm up. Add imli water and let it simmer on high. Add jaggery and spices.

3. For Baskets-- Take the grated potatoes and drain the water. Squeeze all the water out of them and spread them in a bowl. Add cornflour, salt and a tsp of oil. Mix really well. Heat oil in the kadhai. Take more oil so that there is no problem in dipping the baskets. Take the big strainer and arrange a portion of potatoes over it. Make sure the layer is not very thick and nor very thin. Arrange it well and put the 2nd strainer upon it. Now the potato layer is between the 2 strainers..
4. Fry all the baskets with the same process. You can store these baskets for almost a week in a air-tight container..
5. For Tikkis- I wanted to have a healthy tikki.. Well when it’s fried obviously it’s no more healthy still I tried my best in keeping it nutritious in terms of size, ingredients and oil. I kept the size small so that at-least we can have a control over the portions. Mix all the ingredients of the tikkis very well. Adjust salt accordingly. Mix half of the cornflour in 1/3 cup.
