Ingredients
Directions
Prepare the Dough
- In a large bowl, combine all-purpose flour, semolina, salt, and baking powder.
- Add yogurt and mix well.
- Gradually add warm water, kneading until a smooth, soft dough forms.
- Cover and let it rest for 20 minutes.
Prepare the Filling
- In a mixing bowl, combine mashed potatoes, green peas, chopped onion, and green chili.
- Add garam masala, ground cumin, amchur, and salt. Mix well.
- Stir in chopped cilantro until evenly distributed.
Assemble the Pockets
- Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each into a ball.
- Flatten a ball slightly and place a spoonful of filling in the center.
- Bring the edges together to seal, ensuring the filling is encased.
- Gently roll out the filled ball into a 5-inch circle, taking care not to tear.
Fry the Bread Pockets
- Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat.
- Carefully slide a stuffed pocket into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, flipping once to ensure even cooking.
- Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
- Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.
