- 1 tablespoon Green chili, finely chopped (adjust to taste)
- 1 tablespoon Fresh coriander leaves, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon Fennel seeds
- 1 teaspoon Ajwain (carom seeds)
- 1 teaspoon Black salt
- 1 teaspoon Chaat masala
- Salt to taste
For the Filling:
- 1 Cup Peanuts, roasted and coarsely ground
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Roasted cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
- 1 tablespoon Fresh coriander leaves, chopped
- Salt to taste
For Coating and Frying:
- 1 Cup Arrowroot flour or sago flour (for binding)
- 1 Cup Water (adjust as needed)
- Oil for frying
Instructions
1. Prepare the Potato Mixture:
- First, boil the potatoes until they are soft.
- Then, peel and mash them in a large bowl.
- Next, add grated ginger, chopped green chili, fresh coriander leaves, cumin seeds, fennel seeds, ajwain, black salt, chaat masala, and regular salt to the mashed potatoes.
- Mix everything well and set it aside.
2. Prepare the Filling:
- In a separate bowl, combine roasted and coarsely ground peanuts with sugar, red chili powder, roasted cumin powder, coriander powder, fresh coriander leaves, and salt. Mix until it forms a smooth filling.
3. Form the Pattices:
- Now, divide the potato mixture into small balls.
- Flatten each ball slightly and place a spoonful of the peanut filling in the center.
- Carefully seal the edges around the filling and shape it into a round or oval patty, making sure the filling is well-sealed inside.
4. Coat and Fry:
- Next, mix arrowroot flour or sago flour with water to make a thick batter.
- Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Dip each patty into the batter to coat it evenly.
- Fry the patties in hot oil until they are golden brown and crispy on all sides. Remove them from the oil and drain on paper towels.
5. Serve:
- Finally, serve the Farali Pattice hot with green chutney or yogurt on the side. Enjoy!

Tips for Perfect Farali Pattice
-
- To achieve the right texture, make sure to fry your patties on medium heat for a crispy exterior and a soft, flavorful filling.
-
- Next, for the potato mixture, get the consistency just right—not too wet or dry. Adjust the flour and ensure the potatoes are well mashed for a smooth mix.
-
- For sealing the patties, press the edges firmly to avoid any filling leakage. Pro tip: chill the patties for 30 minutes before frying to help them set and stay intact!
