INGREDIENTS
1 medium Potato (150g)
1/2 cup Green Peas (80g)
1/3 cup Chickpea Flour (40g)
1 Large Egg
1/2 cup Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt
Fresh Mint Leaves (about 5 leaves)
1/4 cup Fresh Cilantro, chopped
1 Tbsp Lemon Juice
1 Garlic Clove
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Boil the potato until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Once cooled, peel and roughly mash it.
In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed potato, green peas (lightly mashed to maintain some texture), chickpea flour, and the egg. Season with salt and pepper, and add a few torn mint leaves for extra aroma.
Mix thoroughly until the batter is combined. Form the mixture into small, evenly sized cakes.
Place the cakes on the prepared baking tray and bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden and crispy on the edges.
Meanwhile, prepare the mint chutney by blending the Greek yogurt, fresh mint leaves, chopped cilantro, lemon juice, garlic, and a pinch of salt until smooth.
Once the cakes are baked, let them cool slightly. Serve the warm cakes with a generous side of fresh mint chutney for dipping.
