Serves four as a starter
Prep time: 25 minutes / Cooking time: 25-30 minutes
Ingredients
- 700g large white potatoes
- 2 medium onions
- 1/2 tsp ground ginger
- 2 tsp ground coriander
- 1 tsp chilli powder
- 1 tsp turmeric powder
- 2 tsp cumin seeds
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh coriander plus extra to serve

- 4 tbsp gram (chickpea) flour
- Water to bind
- Fry light spray

Method
- Pre-heat the oven to 190 ˚C.
- Peel and grate the potatoes. Using your hands, squeeze out any liquid and place the grated potato into a large bowl.
- Finely slice the onions and add to the potato.
- Add all the dried spices, salt and gram flour and mix together.
- Take a small jug of cold water and add a tablespoon at a time combining all the ingredients until you have a sticky mixture.
- Mix through the fresh coriander.
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper and with clean wet hands take a small amount of the mixture and form it into a ball and place on the baking tray.
- Continue with the rest of the mixture, leaving a little space between each ball.
- Lightly spray with the oil and place in the pre-heated oven for about 25 minutes or until crispy on the outside and cooked on the inside.
- Check half way through cooking and if looking a little dry, spray again with the oil.
- Serve with chutneys of choice with the remaining chopped fresh coriander and slices of red chilli. Goes particularly well with mango chutney and coriander chutney.
