Spinach Potato Patties Recipes

SPINACH-POTATO PATTIES

Steps:

• Simmer potatoes in water to cover 20 to 30 minutes, until tender. Drain. Meanwhile, stem and finely chop spinach. Place in a large bowl with chili, cilantro, garam masala, cayenne, black pepper, salt and lemon juice. Add potatoes. Mix all ingredients, squeezing with your hands. There will be small chunks of potato.
• Spread bread crumbs on a plate. Form spinach-potato mixture into 12 3-inch patties, using 1/2 cup of the mixture for each. Or use 1/4 cup each for 24 patties. To shape, pack mixture into a metal measuring cup, and tap out onto plate. Coat on both sides with crumbs. Arrange patties in a single layer on a baking sheet, and refrigerate at least 1 hour.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat in a large, heavy skillet. Fry as many patties as will fit comfortably in the pan, turning once, until browned, about 4 minutes a side. Repeat with remaining patties, adding more oil as needed. Serve with chutney.

SUVIR SARAN'S PALAK KI TIKKI (SPINACH AND POTATO PATTIES)

Steps:

• Steam potatoes over 1 inch of boiling water until tender, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a wide bowl and mash with a fork. Add remaining ingredients except panko or chickpea flour and oil and mix well with your hands, squeezing the ingredients together. There will still be small chunks of potato and potato skin in the mixture. Taste and adjust seasoning.
• Scoop out about 1/2 cup of the spinach-potato mixture, roll it with the palm of your hand to make a ball, and coat with panko or chickpea flour. Then press down to flatten to a 3 to 3 1/2-inch cake. Continue with remaining mixture. Chill for at least 1 hour.
• When you're ready to cook, place a rack over a sheet pan. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large frying pan over high heat. Swirl pan to coat with the hot oil. Lower heat to medium. Place 4 to 5 patties in the pan (do not crowd), and cook until well browned on one side, about 4 minutes. Turn and brown for about 4 more minutes. Remove to the rack. Heat remaining oil in pan and cook remaining patties. Keep patties in a low oven until ready to serve. Serve with a salad and your choice of toppings, such as the usual (ketchup, mustard, relish), or yogurt raita, garlic yogurt, or chutney.
