Steps:
- Place the potatoes in a medium saucepan, and add cold water to cover by an inch. Bring to a boil, lower heat, and simmer until potatoes are fork tender, about 15 minutes. Drain, and mash with a fork.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, combine 1 tablespoon oil, ginger, garlic, chili, and chili flakes. Sauté until ginger and garlic are golden brown. Add mashed potatoes, turmeric, cornstarch, lemon juice and cilantro. Reduce heat to low, and cook for 5 minutes, stirring often. Season with salt to taste.
- Remove potatoes from heat and allow to cool to room temperature. Meanwhile, heat vegetable oil to a deep fryer or wok to 350 degrees.
- Make 16 balls, about 1 1/2 inches in diameter, from the potato mixture. Working in batches if necessary, fry balls until golden brown, about 6 to 8 minutes. Drain on paper towels, and serve hot.
