Method
  1. Boil potatoes till soft, add green peas and boil them till soft. Set aside to cool

Notes
Besan helps bind the tikkis/kababs together

If using fresh spinach, squeeze out the water to avoid making the mixture watery and mushy. Frozen spinach is best as you can avoid the process of squeezing out water

Adjust spices as per your taste

Shape them into any shape you like. Tikki shapes are easy to make and roast
