    Ingredients

    400 gm boiled potatoes, peeled and grated
    1 ½ tsp toasted cumin seeds, crushed
    ½ tsp red chilli flakes
    1 tbsp chopped ginger
    ½ tsp chopped green chillies
    2 tbsp chopped coriander leaves
    1 ½ tsp salt
    2 tbsp vegetable oil for frying

    Method:

    Mix all the spices with grated potatoes and mix it well. 

    Shape the mixture into 2 cm diameter cakes with ½ cm thickness. Pat them well and rest in refrigerator for 20 minutes. 

    Heat a non-stick pan or any flat pan and pour oil and pan-fry potato cakes on both sides giving a nice crisp brown surface. The pan shouldn’t be too hot or smoking hot.   The beat results are achieved on medium heat.

    Serve with tomato chutney.

    For the tomato chutney:

    Heat one tablespoon vegetable oil in pan, sauté one teaspoon chopped ginger, three tablespoon chopped onions until translucent.

    Add 250 gm chopped tomatoes, half a teaspoon red chilli powder and one teaspoon salt and two and a half teaspoon sugar. Cook the mixture till tomatoes are melted to form a sauce consistency. 

    Blend the mixture with a mechanical blender and pass through a fine strainer. 

    In a separate pan sauté half a teaspoon nigella seeds or cumin seeds in two teaspoon of vegetable oil and add to the sauce and mix well.
