Servings: 12 ½ cup cakes

Ingredients

1 kg (2lb) white potatoes unpeeled (around 4 large)
2 red onions thinly sliced
2 Tbsp oil
½ cup sun-dried tomatoes sliced thinly
3 spring onions sliced
1 cup coriander (cilantro) freshly chopped
100 g (3 oz) feta cheese cut into small cubes
1 tsp salt
1 tsp ground cumin
½ cup white sesame seeds
2 Tbsp oil (for frying)
¼ cup parsley chopped

Instructions

Cut potatoes into quarters and put in a pot of boiling water. Simmer until soft (around 10 minutes) and then drain.
Mash potatoes roughly so there are still some chunks left.
In a pan saute the onion and oil for about 5 minutes or until soft.
Combine all ingredients in a bowl (except oil, sesame seeds and parsley) and mix well.
Put the sesame seeds on a plate.
Measure out ½ cup of the potato mix and roll into a ball with your hands. Roll in the sesame seeds so it is liberally covered. Repeat with remaining potato mixture.
Heat a non-stick frying pan with a little oil. Fry cakes for around 3 minutes each side or until lightly brown. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.
