Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Boil potatoes until tender, and then drain well. Mash in a bowl.

  2. Step 2

    While potatoes are boiling, heat oil in a skillet, and saute onions until lightly browned.

  3. Step 3

    Combine mashed potatoes and onion, then set aside until cooled to room temperature.

  4. Step 4

    Heat oven to 375 degrees. Grease a baking sheet.

  5. 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.

Tip
  • Plain yogurt mixed with chopped fresh mint is an excellent accompaniment.
