They do look like gigantes. Don't get me wrong though, place them in front of me with some fresh bread and you can call them whatever you wish! I will scarf that down anyday. Delicious, love your website. Lol, I agree with Jessica. They do look like gigantes.

Fasolada beans are small (not "giant") and the dish as a whole is a soup, whereas gigantes are not. I lived in Athens for four years, ate my share of both bean dishes, could make them in my sleep! :) About the Cypriot meat balls, I've never seen keftedes with potato in them, BUT since it's Cypriot, who knows, maybe it's a bit different. But since it's fried though, to me it sounds like some sort of fried ball patty with meat. On lesvos, they do tons and tons of fried patty things (crab, feta, tomato, potato - all fried balls, many of which have cumin in them, yum!) Got me, though!
