Pretty easy to do and not too time consuming either. Best of all, lends itself very well to variations 
Called Aloo Tikki's are essentially just spiced potatoes (indian spices needed). I've only made them a few times and could no doubt do with some improvements but thought i'd share nonetheless! More of a snack/party food rather than a meal. Though of coures if you cook enough of it, it becomes a meal 
First off, boil and peel some potatoes.
Once that's done, mash them up and add in some spices. I have added in about 3/4 tsp salt, 3/4 tsp garam masala, 1 and 1/4 tsp red chilli powder, 1/4 tsp haldi (turmeric) and 1 and 1/2 tsp amchur (dried mango powder. this gives it a nice little tang). Feel free here to vary it a bit and add in more/less of things you prefer.
Follow that up with making patties like this. Easiest way is to roll some into a ball and then flatten it in between your palms.
Pan fry them on a medium heat. Too high and the outside gets burn without the inside being properly cooked.
Do that until nice and golden brown. Ideally, a little while longer than done here so as to get the brown bit nice and crisyp.
Eat with toast/on it its own with sauce of choice I like ketchup. (ignore the watery bit )
