Potato Patties
When Vaishali of Happy Burp announced “potato” as the special ingredient for JFI, I was thrilled. This is one veggie which is liked by one and all. It has the unique quality of making a place for itself in almost all types of cuisine / dishes..From starters, main course to even dessert !
Heres a simple and quick recipe for potato patties.
Ingredients :
- Potatoes – 6, medium sized, boiled and mashed
- Carrot – 1 large , chopped
- Beans – 3-4, chopped

- Lime Juice – 1 tsp
- Salt and Pepper – as per taste
- Bread Crumbs – 1 cup
- Cornstarch – 2-3 tbsp
- Cilantro / Coriander leaves – 2-3 tsp chopped finely.

Method :

- Drain the water, pat dry and coarsely grind.
- Add this to the boiled and mashed potatoes.
- Add cornstarch , salt and pepper and cumin powder, red chilli and lime juice and cilantro.
- Mix well to form a dough. Add more cornstarch if necessary for more binding.
- Make 10-12 balls out of this dough and flatten them with your palms to form patty.
- Make a mixture of one tsp of cornstarch and 2-3 tsp water.
- Place the bread crumbs on a plate.

Hi Jasmine, Interesting recipe and good presentation. Infact this is a recipe all children will love. The tea cup by the side also looks good and gives us a good picture of the dish as a tea time snack. Sometimes visuals make such an impact.
