Ingredients
  

Potato Filling
  • 2 cups potatoes peeled, cubed and boiled
  • 2 tbsp chopped onions
  • 2 tbsp chopped cilantro
  • 1-2 green chillies chopped
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp crushed pomegranate seeds
  • 1/2 tsp salt or to taste
  • 1/4 tsp ground coriander seeds
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp chili powder
Spiced Butter
  • 3 tbsp butter
  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp cilantro chopped
Mint Yogurt Dip
  • 1 tbsp mint chutney
  • 1/4 cup yogurt
  • 1 tsp water
To assemble sliders
  • 1 pack Hawaiian Sweet Rolls
  • 1/2-3/4 cup shredded mozarella
  • 2 tbsp mint chutney
  • 2-3 tbsp sweet tamarind chutney

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 F.
  2. In a medium sized bowl combine all the ingredients listed under potato filling and mix them to combine, mashing the potatoes down slightly.
  3. Take your rolls out of the packaging and cut them in half lengthwise. Place the bottom half in a greased oven-proof dish. Take the top off and spread over the mint chutney. Then add the potatoes filling so it's about 1/2 an inch thick. You may have leftover filling. Then spread over the tamarind chutney. Add more if you like a tangy flavor. Then add the shredded mozzarella and press the top layer of the rolls down gently to secure the fillings.
  4. In a small bowl mix the melted butter with the cumin and cilantro. If you are using unsalted butter add a pinch of salt. Brush the spiced butter all over the tops and sides of the rolls. Bake for 10 minutes or until the cheese has melted and the rolls are a golden brown.
  5. In a small bowl mix together the ingredients listed under Mint Yogurt Dip. Serve the Aloo Tikki Sliders with this dip. Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container. You can reheat them in the microwave or pop them in an air fryer for a couple of minutes.

Notes

Variations: You can add so much to the filling according to your taste. You can add peas, cheese or other vegetables to the potato filling. I like using mozzarella Abu tofu can use a cheddar jack or Mexican cheese blend. 
Make these less psych by cutting the amount of green chillies and chili powder in the filling. 
If you don't have sweet rolls you can use normal burger buns or slider buns.
