Who says a person cannot feast when fasting! Faral means "fast" and farali pattice are designed specifically for those who are fasting.

The name itself says, “Farali” meaning fast and pattice meaning “dumpling”.

Farali pattice is a famous Gujarati snack which is consumed especially during the fasting days or religious occasions or also can be even had as a evening snack.

The steps for making farali aloo pattice are divided, firstly the stuffing is made and the key ingredient to the stuffing is coconut. Other ingredients like roasted and coarsely powdered peanuts, finely chopped coriander (dhania), chopped raisins (kismis), chopped cashew-nuts (kaju), ( Both raisins and cashew-nuts enhance the taste and the mouthfeel of the Farali pattice) ginger-green chilli paste, sugar and lemon juice are also added and mixed together.

Next mixture for potato only needs potatoes and arrow root for binding, we have used arrowroot flour as this is a fasting recipe. If you are not fasting then use cornflour. The potato mixture is flattened and the stuffing is put in the middle and is sealed by bringing all the sides together and shaped round. The farali aloo pattice is then rolled in arrowroot till evenly coated from all the sides, the coating of arrowroat adds a unique dimension to this otherwise common dish and further it is deep-fried till turns brown in colour.

It is a famous mumbai street food dish and is also sold in some mithai shops. Whenever I make farali pattice, everyone gulps it down in minutes. It makes fasting better with its unique taste. My mother would make farali pattice alternate days for family members fasting during Navratri, also it would always be on the menu even when their would be another religious days like Ekadashi.

You can have farali pattice with with sweetened curds and teekha chuntney to complete the mast experience!

Yes you can try in an air-fryer. Alternatively you can make round balls and cook in an appe mould or make flat thin vadas and cook on a non-stick tava with minimum oil.

A great marriage of flavours... sweet, spicy and sour... the the textures are great too... the crispy outer covering from the arrowroot coating, the gooey potato layer right under it... and the crunchy stuffing... packed with flavour... A recipe to perfection...

Nice recipe.. Is it possible to bake the pattice instead of deep fry? If so at what temperature?

user
Tarla Dalal

March 13, 2025, midnight

HiBijal, I am sorry but you cannot bake these pattice. It is necessary to deep-fry or you can try shallow-frying it or cooking it on a tava with little oil. Do try this recipe and let us know about your experience. Happy cooking

Thank you for your response . But cornflour can not be consumed if you are fasting

user

March 13, 2025, midnight

Yes, you are right. That is why we have suggested arrowroot flour. If you are making these pattice for fasting or upvaas, then there is no other substitute.
