Chickpea and Sweet Potato Koftas

Nice flavor - ginger and toasted cumin seeds - enrobed in a matrix of chick pea and sweet potato. These went together easily, and the well seasoned patties contrasted nicely with the sweet whole peas.

The instructions suggest that the mashed vegetables might be stiff - but lacked instruction on the firmness we were looking for. Mine ended up like mashed potatoes. I added an extra 2T flour, and probably should have added more. Couldn't form patties with my hands, so just spread them in the frying pan. They cooked up nicely, no sticking to the pan.

We served these with a dollop of plain yogurt, and everybody enjoyed them.
