Minty Potato Balls

The first time I made this snack was for my mom's kitty party about 2 years back. Since then it has been a much loved snack that is quick and easy to put together in small as well as large batches.
The lemony mint flavor takes it away from the likes of aaloo tikkis.

A sure hit with kids. Give it a go!
