Directions

15 mins to prep

30 mins to cook

  1. Step 1

    Boil potatoes in their skin for 20 minutes or until tender. Set aside to cool.

  2. Step 2

    Add diced onions to a hot pan with grapeseed oil over medium-high heat. Add ginger, garlic and chilli and caramelise for 10 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Remove from heat and add peas, lemon juice, garam masala, sugar, cumin seeds, and salt.

  4. Step 4

    Mash the cooled potatoes, then stir in the onion mixture, mixing well to combine, and season with salt.

  5. Step 5

    Portion the potato mixture into equal portions (about 1/3 cup for each), pressing out any air bubbles as you form them into sort of patties.

  6. Step 6

    Add oil to a frypan over medium-low heat. Fry the patties in batches for 5 minutes or until golden brown and crispy on both sides. Transfer to a paper towel to drain the excess oil, and repeat until you’ve used all the mixture!

  7. Step 7

    Sprinkle over some coriander leaves and serve with your favourite tomato chutney and coconut yoghurt :)
