Taken from Margeret Fulton's book of Indian Cooking. Cooking time is estimated.
Ingredients:
3 tablespoons oil
1 large onion, finely chopped
1 cm piece ginger, finely chopped
1 teaspoon ground coriander
250 g minced beef
1 tablespoon raisins
salt
1 tablespoon finely chopped coriander
1 kg potato, boiled and mashed
flour, for coating
oil, for shallow frying
Directions:
1. Heat the oil in a frying pan, add the onion and ginger and fry until golden.
2. Add the ground coriander and beef and fry until brown.
3. Add the raisins and salt to taste and simmer for about 20 minutes, until the meat is cooked. Spoon out any fat in the pan.
4. Stir in the chopped coriander and leave to cool.
5. Divide the mashed potato into 8 portions. With well floured hands, flatten a portion on one palm, put 3 teaspoons of the meat mixture in the centre and fold the potato over it. Form gently into a round patty shape.
6. Dip the 'chops' lightly in flour and shallow fry a few at a time in hot oil, until crisp and golden, turning carefully to brown the underside.
