Hi Jimmy.
I used this recipe. Pretty good but you need to semi freeze the tatties slightly so they keep their shape. Also you need to move them in the oil after only a few seconds so they don't burn on the bottom if your pan isn't deep enough since they are fairly heavy.

Batata....isn't that Portuguese for Potato?

Perhaps someone else could better answer that but it does seem to be an Indian local word.
I notice on this site they say Wada means Dumplings which sort of fits?
