Parboil the potatoes. Set aside to cool. Grind to a fine powder poha and set aside. Meanwhile peel and grate the beetroot and carrot. Grate the boiled potatoes.

Mix chopped onion, ginger garlic paste, finely chopped green chillies, chaat masala,red chilli powder, roasted cumin powder, garam masala, salt and sugar to taste.Add some half crushed roasted peanuts.Add the poha powder.Mash and mix well to make a dough.No need to add water as there is enough water in beetroot and carrot. Poha powder will soak all water.Drizzle a teaspoon oil on a frying pan and toss the lump for 5 minutes to remove raw smell.

Set aside to cool. Pinch lemon sized balls from the dough and shape into round patties.Spread sesame seeds on a plate and press the tikkis/ patties over it to coat well. Refrigerate for half hour.Drizzle oil on the pan and shallow fry the patties till sesame seeds turn golden brown and properly roasted and crunchy.
