Mint Potato Rolls

Winter has set in and in this season we all love to eat fried snack with our cup of tea!

The consumption of fried foods in moderation and in the right manner can help you build your immunity during monsoon/winter season, where the chances of immunity drop are higher due to the lack of enough calorie intake or outdoor physical activities.   Fried food is something that we all enjoy with an added guilty pleasure to it. Do we like it? Well, we love to gorge on to deep fried crispy snacks, although we hate to admit it because of the overly hyped clean eating and healthy lifestyle movements happening around us.  Nowadays, for most of us, counting calories and discussing weight loss has become second nature and avoiding oily or high-calorie food has become our natural response.  But I guess, as an occasional or seasonal treat, home-fried foods have a place in our healthy diet plans. 

I recently made Mint Potato Rolls... They are crispy on the outside, and soft and spicy and bursting with awesome flavors from inside. The spicy potato stuffing makes it a tempting and a delicious tea-time snack...Your kids will love them and it is an ideal snack that you can pack for their brunch.

These stuffed bread rolls are very simple to make, crisp and delicious. I guarantee you that they won’t last long once they are out of the pan! 

Ingredients :

Potatoes - 3 large (boiled and mashed)

Grated ginger & garlic  - 1 tsp

Garam Masala - 1 to 1.5 tsp (you can adjust this according to your taste)

Salt to taste

Coriander powder - 1 tsp

Amchur Powder - 1/4 tsp

Butter - 1 to 2 tbsp

Green Chutney - Coriander leaves, Mint leaves, Chillies & 1 tsp lime juice (grind without water)

White bread - 8 to 12 slices

Water

Oil to deep fry

Method :

Mash the cooked Potatoes.  Add the grated ginger & garlic, salt, garam masala, amchur powder, green chutney and the butter to the mashed potato and mix well.  Cut the edges of the bread and keep aside.  You can use the edges to make bread crumbs and use them later for making snacks.

Gently dip the bread in water and squeeze out all the water.  Make long rolls of the potato stuffing and place in the middle of the bread slice and give a shape of roll.  Make all other rolls in the similar way.  Heat the oil and deep fry all the rolls and serve them with Green chutney & sauce.
