About Fried potato patty

Fried potato patties, also known as aloo tikki in Indian cuisine or potato croquettes in European traditions, are made from mashed potatoes mixed with spices or other ingredients, shaped into patties, and shallow or deep-fried until golden brown. They are popular in diverse cuisines, serving as snacks, appetizers, or sides. Nutritionally, these patties are primarily a source of carbohydrates due to the potatoes, with some protein and fat contributed by additional ingredients like breadcrumbs or oil used for frying. On average, a single patty contains around 200 calories, depending on preparation, and offers small amounts of vitamins C, B6, and potassium from the potatoes.

Are there any health concerns with eating fried potato patty?
