Fantastic combination of otherwise dull ingredients that made for a delicious and creative patty. I soaked the black eyed peas for two days instead of cooking them (drain and rinse each day). Then used a food processor to blend the beans onions etc. Added a zucchini to the batter. Thanks for the idea.

Thanks so much for posting. I also had the cakes at the Spotted Dog and fell in love. I’ve been wanting to make them ever since I had them!

I have also been to The Spotted Dog and have been searching for a version of their Black Eyed Pea Cakes for months! I thought they were delicious and especially loved the tahini sauce that was served with them. I will surely try this recipe! Gorgeous pictures, by the way!

I made these for my partners birthday lunch and he loved them. In fact, we all did. Thanks for the great recipe.

Thanks for your kind comment, Wendy <3

Serranos sound wonderful in the black eyed pea cakes! So does the chickpea flour! AP flour or rice flour will also work. What we want is a little coating on the cakes so the flour crisps up when it hits the hot pan.

I just made this. These are great. Don’t skip the lime zest! I used serrano instead of jalapeño and chick pea flour for cornstarch. I don’t think it mattered, but serranos may be a little more hot. I also made your Indian Fries. So good. Wish I would have went out to get the curry leaves though! I will be back here often. Wendy

I had this dish for the first time at a lovely Inn located in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Upon my return home I had to find a recipe and unbelievably I live just a few miles from the inspiration for this one! I made it this evening and it was perfect! The instructions were helpful for a total non-chef like me. I believe that Inn five hours away copied YOUR recipe!
