Ingredients
2 pounds boiling potatoes, peeled
3 tablespoons cooking oil
½ cup finely chopped onion
½ cup coarsely ground walnuts
½ cup bread crumbs
2 eggs
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
Pinch of ground cardamom
Pinch of ground coriander
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Preparation
- Step 1
Boil potatoes until tender, and then drain well. Mash in a bowl.
- Step 2
While potatoes are boiling, heat oil in a skillet, and saute onions until lightly browned.
- Step 3
Combine mashed potatoes and onion, then set aside until cooled to room temperature.
- Step 4
Heat oven to 375 degrees. Grease a baking sheet.
- Step 5
To the mashed-potato mixture, add walnuts, bread crumbs, eggs, nutmeg, cardamom, coriander, salt and pepper. Using about ¼ cup of the potato mixture for each, form flattened oval patties, and place them on the baking sheet. Bake patties for about 10 minutes per side, until browned.
Plain yogurt mixed with chopped fresh mint is an excellent accompaniment.
