This dish pairs well with sweet tamarind dates chutney, green coriander mint chutney, and fresh crunchy salad. I have some beautiful memories of Indore. We roamed around Rajbada while midnight snacking on delicious street food. Sampling fantastic chaat and patties in the Chappan area was just an amazing experience. We tried and tested so many dishes and loved each one. Khopra Patties was one such item that made us spellbound with its taste.

How to Make Khopra Patties
1—The first step is to boil potatoes and grate them. Grating ensures a smooth texture. Then, mix grated potatoes with cornstarch and bread crumbs. Knead it properly to make a smooth dough. 2—The second step is to prepare a wonderful coconut flake, herb, and spice mix. We will add poppy seeds, broken cashews, raisins, red chili powder, green chili, lemon juice, cilantro leaves, grated ginger, and salt. 3—After that, make a flat potato mixture patty on your palm and stuff the coconut mixture into it. Then, make a smooth, round ball. 4- Fry/air-fry all the balls until they are crispy and golden. Lastly, serve them with salad and chutney.
Can You Prepare Them Ahead of Time?
Prepare the patties in advance, then keep them in an airtight container in the fridge. You can keep them like this for 2-3 days in the fridge and around two weeks in the freezer. Thaw them before you fry them. Thawing in the fridge and using freezer-safe containers is important to maintain the freshness and crunch of the patties.
