Mashed potatoes, spiced with green chillies, turmeric and onions, pan fried with oil make a delicious tea time snack. This version is called differently in different parts of india, cutlets in the south, tikkies in the north, patties in gujarat.

This can be made healthier with additons of grated carrots, cheese, panner. Tastier with green spring onions, corn, peas or any thing you can think of. Sandwitch it between a burger bread/ normal slice bead and pack it off as a snack/lunch box.
