Peel the boiled, cooled potatoes and grate them on the large holes of a box grater (or pass through a ricer) into a large mixing bowl. Add the finely chopped cashews, cornstarch, garam masala, ground cumin, and 1/2 tsp salt. Mix until a firm, cohesive dough forms — it should hold its shape when pressed.
