Ingredients

• 2 medium, peeled and grated potato
• 1 small, finely chopped onion
• 1 tbsp cumin seed
• 1 tsp ground coriander
• 1/4 tsp turmeric
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup water
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions

1. Step 1: In a large bowl, combine 2 medium potatoes peeled and grated, 1 small onion finely chopped, 1 tbsp cumin seed, 1 tsp ground coriander, 1/4 tsp turmeric, and 1/2 tsp salt. Mix well to combine.
2. Step 2: Add 1/4 cup all-purpose flour and 1/4 cup water to the potato mixture, stirring until a thick batter forms that holds together when pressed.
3. Step 3: Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Drop the mixture by 1/4-cup portions into the hot oil, pressing each into a 1/2-inch thick patty. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and crisp.
