Ingredients :

Boiled Potatoes 2
Onion 1
Coriander powder 1 tsp
Cumin powder 1 tsp
Green chilly 1 slit
Lime juice 1 tsp
Salt to taste
Wheat flour 2 cups
Water 1 cup

Method:

Peel and mash potatoes. Cool. Heat a little oil and sauté some finely chopped onions, green chilly, coriander powder and cumin powder. Mix well with the potato mash after both reach room temperature. Make small balls of the mixture. Make a dough of the wheat flour and water. Add water in small quantities and knead such that the dough is soft and not sticky. The amount of water to be used is approximate. As you knead you will know how much water has to be added. Now take a ball of dough slightly bigger than a lime and roll it to a circle 4-5 inches in diameter. Place the potato mixture into it and again make a ball covering the potato mixture completely sealing the stuffing. Flatten these balls and roll into 6 inch circles. Heat a girdle or any thick bottomed pan. Oil it slightly and cook on low flame. Cook on both sides. Serve hot with pickles, salad and curds.
