I wish I had discovered this earlier. I guess it is nothing new. But would have been a convenient finger food while the kids were younger, a lunch - picnic - journey snack. Makes it easier to carry as compared to Puris and Curry separately packed, plates, spoons and stuff.
Puri -
Wheat Flour
Salt - to taste
A spoon of oil
And oil for deep frying.
Add sufficient water to make a slightly tough dough. Keep covered till use.
Curry:
Potato -3 large, boiled
Onion - 1 - diced
Green chilies - 2 - finely diced ( can avoid and add the chili powder instead)
Red chili powder - 1 tsp ( optional)
Turmeric powder - 1/4 tsp
Coriander powder - 1/2 tsp
Salt to taste
Oil - 2 tsp
Mustard - 1/2 tsp
Curry leaves - few
In a wok heat the oil, add the mustard - allow to splutter, add curry leaves.
Add the onion. Saute till trasparent along with the chili
Add mashed potato
And the powders, salt
Mix . Keep a while.
Remove from stove.
Cool.
Roll out puri.
Add a little potato curry in the center of puri
Fold puri over the curry.
Roll again.
Fry in oil.
Drain well.
Eat hot.
Or pack in foil along with a little pickle and eat later.
Will try this and some of the other recipes on the weekend
