Instructions

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

Soak the beans in warm water overnight. Drain, rinse, and cook the beans; the longer they cook, the softer they will become. Peel the potatoes, boil them, and grate them.
Mix the potatoes with the beans and season with salt, black pepper, cilantro, and curry powder. Scoop out portions of the mixture, shape into balls, and coat in flour.
Place the balls in a baking dish and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) until golden. Alternatively, fry them in oil if desired.

Tip: Drain the cooked beans well and mash them with a potato masher so they hold together with the grated potatoes. Drizzle the flour-coated balls with oil before baking to help them turn golden.
