The chickpea and potato fritters are tasty vegan bites, perfect to enjoy as a main course or as finger food for a home aperitif. I’ve enriched these fritters with peas and curry and cooked them in a pan with oil, but alternatively, you can cook them in an air fryer. Creating this recipe is quick and easy, and I recommend serving the croquettes with yogurt sauce for a burst of flavor!
