What is Ragda?

        Ragda is a stew, made with dried white peas, chaat masala, and some Indian spices.  It’s slightly tangy and spicy. White peas taste quite different from the usual chickpeas. 

What is Patties?

        Patties also are known as Aloo Tikki/Potato Patties. These tikkies are India's version of hash browns. They are made with boiled and mashed potatoes and flavored with chaat masala and some spices. Then combined to make a soft dough. Made equal-sized patties from the ball and pan-fried until it becomes brown from both sides. To make them crispy sometimes I add bread crumbs or sometimes soaked poha (flattened rice) to the potatoes.

       So if you are looking for tongue-tickling sweet and spicy Indian chaat to satisfy your cravings then do try this simple and delicious instant pot ragda-patties recipe. 

         Have you guys ever had Indian Chaat dishes? Honestly, all the chaat or snack food are my family's favorite foods to munch on.

My take:

• I have used white vatana, but if you have green vatana, chickpeas in your pantry then you can use that also.
• If you are making no onion - no garlic version then skip the addition of onion while serving ragda patties.
