Notes
Store leftover Potato Patties in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat them on a pan for a crispy texture. The green chutney can also be stored separately in a jar and kept in the fridge for about a week. You can add different vegetables like corn or spinach to the potato mixture for variety. Cheese can also be added to make them cheesy patties.
