Today I made Bisi Bhele Bhat for lunch. Did not want to fry papad as always to accompany it. I remembered there was some boiled rice lying in the fridge. Boiled potato is generally available in my fridge. I decided to try out a patty using the two. They turned out delicious, real crispy because of the rice. Surprisingly very filling. Very quick and easy to make. Would be a wonderful snack for kids when they come back from school.
If you don't have boiled potato available in the fridge. Here is a quick fix. Wash a potato. Prick it with a knife all over. Micro it for 5-6 minutes on high along with half a glass or water. Let it rest for a few minutes. Your boiled potato is ready.
