Step 1

In a large bowl, mix the flour and salt together. Slowly add about 1/4 cup of water, then keep adding a little more as needed until you get a soft, slightly sticky dough. Stir in the oil and knead until smooth. Cover the dough with a cloth or plastic wrap and let it rest for about 30 minutes.

While the dough rests, mash the boiled potatoes in a bowl. Add cumin powder, chili flakes, pepper, salt, crushed coriander seeds, dried fenugreek, chopped chilies, onion, and fresh coriander leaves. Mix everything well so the flavors come together.
