In a large bowl, combine the flaked fish with the potato, green chili, coriander, cumin, black pepper, garlic, and ginger. Season the mixture, then add the flour and break in 1 egg. Mix everything thoroughly.
Divide the mixture into 15 portions and shape each into a small log. In one bowl, lightly whisk the remaining eggs. In another, place the breadcrumbs. Dip each fofo first in the beaten egg, then roll it in the breadcrumbs until fully coated.
Transfer the breaded fofos to a plate and chill them for at least 20 minutes. This helps them hold their shape when frying.
