Indian Potato Cakes

These Indian Potato Cakes are decadent and so versatile. I eat them on top of a fresh salad or in a burger bun. The kids love them, too. After watching one of Bosh!‘s videos about Curry Potato Cakes, I figured I would apply the typical Indian cooking technique and make them the Livity Gardens’ way.
