40 Meatless Meals: Pakora Patties

This is a great way to use up leftover mashed potatoes and vegetables, especially after a dinner party. If you're starting from scratch, boil the potatoes the night before for quicker preparation, and omit the flour in the recipe.

For every two people
about 2 cups mashed potatoes, or 2 boiled potatoes, mashed
1/2 cup cooked vegetables
1/4 cup sliced scallions
1/4 c flour (see note above)
1 egg, beaten
pinch of turmeric or saffron
salt and pepper to taste

Combine all the ingredients together; fry in patties.
