Chickpea and potato cakes are a delicious and healthy vegetarian dish that is perfect for any meal of the day. These cakes are made with a combination of chickpeas, potatoes, and spices, and are pan-fried until crispy and golden brown.

To make these chickpea and potato cakes, you will need the following ingredients per serving:

- 1/2 cup cooked chickpeas
- 1/2 cup mashed potatoes
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
- 1/4 cup finely chopped cilantro
- 1/2 tsp ground cumin
- 1/2 tsp ground coriander

- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp olive oil


To start, combine the chickpeas, mashed potatoes, onion, cilantro, cumin, coriander, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly combined.
Next, heat the olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Using your hands, form the chickpea and potato mixture into small patties, about 2-3 inches in diameter. Place the patties in the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are crispy and golden brown.
