Ingredients
14 slices white bread
10 medium size potatoes – boiled and mashed
⅓ cup steamed peas
½ cup chopped onions
2 green chili or to taste – finely chopped
2 tbsp fresh cilantro – finely chopped
2 tsp salt or to taste
2 tsp red chili powder or to taste
2 tsp ginger/garlic paste (optional)
1 tsp amchoor powder
1 tsp garam masala
Oil for frying
Directions
- First to make the stuffing, take a bowl and add potatoes, peas, onions, green green chilies, cilantro, red chili powder, salt, ginger garlic paste, amchoor powder and garam masala.
- Mix together, and add any extra spice to taste. Keep aside.
- Take a bowl and add water and dip a slice of bread in water then squeeze excess out between your palms.
- Some people remove the crusts first, but I prefer to keep them.
- Add about 2 tbsp of potato mixture to the center (more/less depending on size of slice). Make a roll in whatever shape you’d like.
- Repeat for all bread and keep aside.
- Start a fry pan on medium heat. Add oil and wait until oil is hot.
- Put a roll into the oil and fry until every side is brown. Remove and put on a paper towel to remove excess oil.
- Fry all the rolls in the same manner. Make sure the pan is not too crowded, otherwise the rolls may break or not be crispy.
- Serve piping hot or room temperature with green or imli chutney and tea/coffee. Enjoy!
Notes
- These rolls keep well in the fridge in an airtight box – they’re great for traveling, parties, and picnics. You can also assemble the day before frying.
