Corn and Potato Fritters

Recipe #254924 | 19 min | 15 min prep | SERVES 5 -6 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: grapefruit

I got this recipe from a family circle cookbook but made a few changes of my own. The original recipe had only 1 tsp of garam masala and no salt and chilli powder added. Made these fritters today for Iftar and we loved them - especially the dipping sauce.

    These were OK...my mom really liked them, the rest of the family didn't. I probably won't make them again. They have a weird flavor. Like, a combination between a great breakfast food and some Indian flavor...they don't taste very good together. The idea of using eggs and potatoes and breadcrumbs to make homemade hashbrowns sounds really good, though!!!
