1Peel and boil the potatoes until they are soft. Drain and let them cool slightly.
Mash the potatoes in a large bowl until smooth.
Add the chilli masala and salt to the mashed potatoes. Mix well to combine.
Shape the potato mixture into small balls, about the size of a golf ball.
Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
Fry the potato balls in batches, turning occasionally, until they are golden brown and crispy on all sides.
Remove the potato balls from the pan and drain on paper towels.
Serve hot as a snack or appetizer.
