I always order begedil when having my nasi lemak meal. I love these potato patties, and this is my first attempt at making them. I used yukon potatoes as they hold better when shaping.
And instead of the usual deep frying, I opted for pan frying. I think I made the patties a tad too big though, they were tasty but would have tasted better if they were smaller in size.
Ingredients
8 small yukon potatoes
2 stalks green onion (chopped finely)
a few stalks cilantro (chopped finely)
salt and pepper to taste
3/4 tsp turmeric powder (optional, for extra flavour)
6 small shallots (peeled and sliced)
1 large egg (beaten into a bowl)
oil for pan frying
