Steps

1

Boil the potatoes until soft. Peel and mash. Cook the peas and add them to the potato, breaking them down slightly.
2

Add the spring onions, chilli, coriander, spices, lemon and salt. Mix well and form into 18 balls. Roll each one in flour better then coat with bread crumbs knocking off any excess.
3

Make the sauce by heating the oil and frying the onion for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the garlic, ginger paste and spices and cook for 2 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes and water and cook until the tomatoes have broken and the sauce has thickened.
4

Heat the oil in a wok or deep pan. Fry the koftas in batches until golden. Drain on kitchen towel and serve covered in the sauce. Garnish with coriander / mint.
