Instructions

1

Step 1

In a large bowl, mix the flour, salt, carrom seeds, and clarified butter until well combined. Slowly add about 1/2 cup of water and knead into a firm dough, adding a little more water if needed. Cover it and let it rest for 15 minutes.

Step 2

While the dough rests, combine the mashed potatoes with crushed coriander seeds, chili powder, pepper, dry fenugreek, chili flakes, chaat masala, cumin powder, salt, chopped green chilies, onion, and fresh coriander leaves in a bowl. Mix everything well.

Step 3

Divide the dough into equal-sized balls. Roll each ball into a thin circle, then cut it in half. Shape each half into a cone, wet the edges with water, fill with the potato mixture, and seal the edges tightly.

Step 4
