  1. Great flavors in these cakes (I used left over mashed potatoes). Easy to make and turned out wonderfully. Served with Butter Chicken. YUM.
     
  2. These are certainly delicious. I absolutely like the chutney too! It's easy to make and is a keeper for me.
     
  3. Delicious!! I used half the cumin called for in the cakes and was out of cilantro, so I used fresh parsley and added a clove of garlic to the sauce. My jalapeno was kickin' hot but we really enjoyed the heat with these cakes. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
     
  4. YUMMMMY - i did omit the cilantro - I didnt have on hand and I used a bit of cajun seasoning instead of the jalapeno and WOW I love these! I make traditional polish/eastern european potato pancakes every other sunday...and now these as well. They're so good!!!!
     
  5. Yum!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am a vegetarian and love spicy and ethnic food. I am always searching for the perfect this or that. I'm a mad scientist in the kitchen and in real life. I am in medical school and have a one year old son and find cooking to be excellent stress relief. I want my food to be fun and beautiful and to put a smile on people's faces (mostly my husband's).
