Ragda Patties is a delectable Indian Chaat item. It is one of the popular street foods of Mumbai. Chaat is category of snacks which is full of spicy, sweet and tangy flavors i.e chatpata in taste. Earlier I have shared several chaat recipes such as Sev Puri, Bhel etc.

Ragada Patties/Pattice has two main components, Ragda and Patties. Ragda is a simple white peas curry whereas patties are made of potatoes. It’s a one pot meal in itself just like Misal and Pav Bhaji.

If you want to make this dish, plan in advance since white peas need to be soaked and then cooked. Patties are lightly spiced potato tikkis. This snack is great choice for potlucks. You can prepare Ragda and patties in advance. Chop and keep onions, tomatoes ready. Keep chutneys, chaat masala and sev in separate bowls. Let guests assemble everything as per their choice and spice level.
