Directions

  1. Chop the potatoes to roughly the same size, and boil for 15 minutes until just tender. Drain thoroughly, mash and stir in the salt and flour. Leave to cool.
  2. Heat the vegetable oil or butter in a small frying pan, and fry the chilli, coconut, coriander and spices for 5-10 minutes, stirring all the time. Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon juice.
  3. Shape the potato mixture into balls, make a dip in each and place a little spice mixture in the dip. Enclose the potato around it and then flatten each one into a small 'cake'. Coat the potato patties in semolina.
  4. Shallow-fry in batches for a couple of minutes on each side, or until crisp and golden. Drain on kitchen paper and serve warm or cold with mango chutney.
