Preparation
Place the potatoes, egg, curry, chili, salt, pepper, parsley, coriander, onion, and garlic in a bowl.
Add the chicken and mix the ingredients with your fingertips until well combined. Add some breadcrumbs if the mixture is too soft.
Place the flour in a wide bowl and add salt and black pepper.
Place the egg in a wide bowl, add a pinch of black pepper, and beat with a fork until mixed.
Place the breadcrumbs in a wide bowl.
Shape the mixture into balls with your hands, then form them into discs about 4-5 cm in diameter.
Coat each kibbeh disc in flour, turning to cover both sides well, then transfer to the egg and coat well with a fork, and finally coat in breadcrumbs.
In a deep skillet, heat oil to a depth of about 2 inches.
Fry the kibbeh in hot oil, turning with a slotted spoon until golden brown.
Transfer the fried kibbeh to paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve the chicken kibbeh hot.
