Description
Crispy spiced samosa patties made with potatoes, peas, and warm curry flavor. Easy to pan-fry and ready in 25 minutes for a flavorful appetizer or snack.
Ingredients
- 3 large Yukon Gold potatoes, baked or boiled and peeled
- ½ cup frozen peas
- ¼ cup finely chopped onion
- 1½ teaspoons curry powder
- ½ teaspoon ground ginger
- ½ teaspoon salt, plus extra for dredging
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons butter or plant-based spread
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
Instructions
- Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and peas and cook for 5 minutes until the onion softens.
- Mash the peeled potatoes in a large bowl until mostly smooth.
- Add the cooked peas and onion, curry powder, ginger, salt, pepper, and 1 tablespoon butter to the potatoes. Mix until well combined.
- Form the mixture into 8 small patties, about 2 inches wide.
- Place the flour and a pinch of salt in a shallow dish. Lightly dredge each patty in the flour to coat.
- Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon butter and 2 tablespoons oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- Fry the patties in batches for 3 minutes per side until golden brown and crisp.
- Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- Serve warm with chutney or a cool yogurt dip.
Notes
- For a lighter version, the patties can be baked at 425°F for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
