Veg Rolls

I tried this evening snack yesterday and it was loved by my kids :)

Ingredients

Maida or Atta - 1 cup
Potatoes -  3 nos
Onions - 1 big (chopped fine)
Carrot - 1 big (grated)
Peas - a handful (optional)
Fennel seeds - 1 tspn
Ginger garlic paste - 1 tblspn
Chilli powder - 1 tspn
Salt - 1 and half tspn
Coriander leaves - chopped fine - 2 tblspn
Oil - to fry

Method

Filling

Cook the potatoes and peas.  Mash the potatoes. Heat a teaspoon of oil in a tawa. Add the fennel seeds, ginger garlic paste and chopped onions. Fry till the raw smell of garlic goes off. Add the grated carrot and keep turning the mixture for 2 minutes. Then add the mashed potatoes and peas. Add the salt and chilli powder. Then add the coriander leaves and mix everything to form a dough.

To make the rolls

Knead the flour with water in to a dough. Roll the dough into medium thick puris.  Place the filling in a corner of the dough. Roll halfway, close the sides to avoid the filling coming out and roll the remaining half. Slightly press the corners to avoid the filling coming out. Heat oil in a pan and shallow fry the rolls. Serve hot with tomato ketchup or spicy coriander chutney.

Variant

Instead of potatoes, crumbled paneer can also be used for the filling.
