Boil the potatoes in a saucepan of hot water until they are tender, approximately 15-20 minutes.
While the potatoes are boiling, quickly blanch the green peas in boiling water for 2 minutes and then drain them.
Once the potatoes are cooked, remove them from the water and allow them to cool slightly before peeling.
Mash the boiled potatoes and blanched peas in a large mixing bowl.
Finely chop the onion, green chili, and coriander leaves.
Add the chopped onion, green chili, and coriander leaves to the potato and pea mixture.
Grate or mince the ginger and add it to the mixture along with the cumin powder, coriander powder, chili powder, and salt.
Add the lemon juice and mix all the ingredients thoroughly to form a firm, cohesive mixture.
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each portion into a flat, round patty.
Coat each patty lightly with breadcrumbs, ensuring an even layer on both sides.
Spray a non-stick skillet or tawa with a light layer of oil spray and heat over medium flame.
Place the patties on the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and crispy.
Once cooked, remove the patties from the skillet and serve them hot with a side of chutney or yogurt.
