Process

  1. Prep
    1. Lentils
      1. Soak the mung dal lentils for 15 minutes before cooking
      2. Bring a pan of water to a boil, add the lentils and salt. Cook until soft -- 15-20 minutes.
    2. Boil the potatoes until just done, then mash
    3. Dry-roast the chickpea flour - 3-5 minutes in a dry pan on medium-low heat for 3-5 minutes -- the colour should deepen slightly and it will smell toasty.

  3. Add the lentils, chop some more.
  4. Mix together the potatoes and lentil mixture
  5. Add the spices and lemon juice, mix well

  7. Make patties, dry fry until golden on both sides.
