FRIED POTATO PATTIES

A real kid pleaser. Best made with fresh potatoes, as opposed to instant, with a stiff potato consistency. I just boil a few potatoes and smash them with a fork.

Tips:

For the perfect aloo patties, use a combination of boiled and mashed potatoes. This will give them a soft and fluffy texture.
Make sure to add plenty of spices and herbs to the potato mixture. This will give the patties a delicious flavor.
If you don't have any bread crumbs, you can use crushed cornflakes or rice flakes instead.
Be careful not to overcook the patties. They should be cooked until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside, but still soft and fluffy on the inside.
Serve the aloo patties with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ketchup, chutney, or yogurt.

Conclusion:

Aloo patties are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give aloo patties a try!
