As I have told you in lots of my posts about fasting foods (farari Foods) – on the days we Hindus fast, there is a list of foods that we are “allowed” to eat. The list – often referred to as farari food – includes all the fruits and nuts, milk and milk products including yogurt. It also includes potatoes, sweet potatoes, cassava, tapiaco (sabudana), ragigara flour etc. In fact, the sumptuous delicacies you can eat in place of everyday food makes you feel that you are having a feast because of the variety you can make.

One of the delicacies I make is pattis/patice made from potato and topiaco.

Ingredients for 4 servings of Farari Potato and Topioca Pattis:

  • 3 medium sized potatoes
  • 1 cup of topioca (sabudana)
  • 1 tsp grated ginger
  • 2-3 fresh green chilies chopped finely
  • 2 tbls of potato starch or any farari atta
  • small bunch of coriander
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp coarse pepper
  • 1 -2 tsp sugar (optional)
  • 1-2 tsp fresh lemon juice (optional)
  • ½ cup cooking oil

Method:

1. Wash and soak the topioca in just enough water to cover them. Check after half an hour and the topioca should be soft now. If not, add a bit more water and check in 10 to 15 minutes.

2. In the mean time, Steam or boil the potatoes in their jackets. Once boiled, check that they are cooked through and allow them to cool and then peel the potato.  Mash the potatoes and add the potato starch, ginger, chilies, salt, pepper, the coriander, lemon and sugar.  Rinse the topiaco under a cold water tap and add them to the mashed potatoes.  Once mixed, divide this mixture into 15-20 small balls. Lightly oil your fingers and press the balls to form small pattis/pattice.

6.   On a lightly oiled frying pan, cook the pattis/pattice turning them slowing when they get golden brown
.
7.  Serve the Farari Potato and Tapioca Patties (sabudana pattice) with yogurt on its own or with the rest of your farrari (fasting) food.
