Boil the potatoes in a large pot for about 15 minutes, or until tender. Drain, peel, and mash them in a big bowl.
Peel and grate the carrot. Add it to the mashed potatoes along with the green peas.
In a small skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Saute the chopped onion and minced garlic until translucent. Add this to the potato mixture.
Stir in chopped coriander, ground cumin, ground coriander, salt, and black pepper into the potato mixture. Mix everything until well combined.
In a small bowl, mix chickpea flour and water into a smooth batter.
Take portions of the potato mixture (about the size of a golf ball) and flatten them into patties.
Dip each patty into the chickpea batter, ensuring they are coated evenly.
Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Fry the patties in batches, about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Drain the bergedil on paper towels to remove excess oil before serving.
Serve the Vegan Bergedil warm, with your choice of dipping sauce or chutney.
