Step-by-Step Instructions

1. 1.Boil Potatoes

   Place 4-5 medium potatoes (some whole, some halved) in a pressure cooker with water. Cook until tender and easily mashed.

2. 2.Prepare Aromatics

   Finely chop 2 small onions and 1 small tomato. Crush 4-5 cloves of garlic and a 1-inch piece of ginger.

3. 3.Combine Ingredients

   In a large bowl, mash the boiled potatoes. Add the chopped onions, chopped tomatoes, and crushed ginger-garlic to the mashed potatoes.

4. 4.Add Flour and Spices

   Add 3/4 cup of chickpea flour (besan) to the potato mixture. Then, add 1/2 tsp turmeric powder, 1 tsp red chili powder, 1 tsp cumin powder, 1 tsp coriander powder, and salt to taste.

5. 5.Mix Thoroughly

   Mix all the ingredients together thoroughly until a uniform, thick batter or dough-like consistency is formed.

6. 6.Pan-Fry Fritters

   Heat 2-3 tablespoons of cooking oil in a flat pan or griddle over medium heat. Take small portions of the potato mixture, flatten them into round patties, and place them on the hot griddle. Fry for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.

7. 7.Serve

   Once cooked, remove the potato fritters from the pan. Serve hot with ketchup or your preferred chutney.
