    How to make sweet potato patties: Step by step

    Into a bowl, add the cooled potatoes and mash them using a masher.

    Now add chopped garlic, mixed herbs, cumin powder, black pepper powder and the required salt. Mix well.

    Add gram flour/besan in small batches and mix thoroughly without any lumps. Then add roughly crushed roasted peanuts and mix well.

    Now add half of the bread crumbs and mix well. Cover and keep the mixture in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes.

    Add corn flour into a small mixing bowl and add the required water to make a smooth slurry.

    Grease your palms with oil and divide the mixture into equal parts and make it big or small as per your taste. Shape them by flattening them in between your palms.

    Dip the shaped disc into the cornflour slurry and then roll it in the remaining bread crumbs. Keep aside on a plate.

    Heat a pan with 2 to 3 tablespoons of oil for shallow frying. Before adding the patties to the pan make sure the oil is hot enough.

    Carefully add the patties to the pan and fry them on medium flame until they turn golden colour on both sides.

    Variations

    For potato burger: Toast the buns with butter and spread a little bit of yoghurt mint chutney, followed by some lettuce, and cucumber and place the pattie in between the buns and enjoy!

    For tortilla wrap: slightly mash the patties and place them on top of lettuce, and sliced cucumber, with some dipping sauce like sweet chilli sauce or mayonnaise and wrap it tightly.

    Storage

    • You can freeze these patties/cutlets. After shaping them into patties, place them on a tray and freeze them until they are frozen. Take them out and place them in a ziplock bag or airtight container. They stay good for 2-3 months
    • Before frying the patties thaw them thoroughly.
    • These potato patties stay good for 2- 3 days in the fridge when stored in an airtight box.

    Tips and tricks

    Boil potatoes until they are just soft and don't overcook them.

    After boiling the potatoes drain the water and allow it to stand for a few minutes.

    Allow them to cool completely and then mash or grate the potatoes. Don't add the binding agent when the mixture is hot otherwise, it will become sticky.

    Add the patties to the pan when the oil is hot enough otherwise they absorb oil and will not be crispy. If this happens add 1 or 2 tablespoons extra bread crumbs to the mixture and combine well.

    Notes:

    Adjust the spices according to your taste

    For nut-free option skip peanuts
