Patties/Veg Puff/व्हेज पफ

Veg Puff ,Patties


In college days..we used to eat it almost every Sunday morning....
Very easy to make so you can make it at home.. a good option for accompanying tea...
serve hot with nice Masala Chai :-)
I am giving a generic Recipe, how to do it. Adjust your ingredients as per the number of Puffs you want to do it.
Basically,I did it with Potato sabji this time. Like Aloo masala of masala dosa. You can prepare mixed veg Sabji or any stuffing as you like. :-)
I would suggest, use 2 potatoes and prepare stuffing. and Make 2-3 Puffs from it and see how it goes.Later on you can try more numbers. :-)


Ingredients:
Puff pastry ( I used Jus-Rol Puff pastry 500 gm pack which will have 2  slabs/thick sheets 
it makes 25-30 medium sized Puffs )
You can use as much as you want to make Puffs. Its like frozen Dough ,so use and then freeze again.
For potato stuffing :
Medium sized potatoes ( ideal for mash ).
Green chillies to taste
Grated ginger
Mustard seeds, cumin seeds, Turmeric powder
Salt to taste
Coriander powder
Procedure:
  1. De-frost the pastry  for 2-3 hours. Ideally keep it outside freezer to normal room temperature for more than 2 hours before you start rolling the pastry.
  2. Boil potatoes in pressure cooker until soft and easy to be mashed. Mash the potatoes to prepare filing.
  3. Preheat the Oven for 200 deg.C
  4. Potato filling : Keep oil for heating. Once heated, add mustard seeds, cumin seeds, Grated ginger, chopped chillies, turmeric powder. Stir well. Add the mashed potatoes.
  5. Mix well and add salt to taste. Add Coriander powder for a nice Flavor.
  6. Mix well and cook for just 5 min. Keep it aside to cool down.
  7. The pastry will come as a square slab.Divide the slab into small squares.(Cut the Pastry slab with Knife into an approx. 3 cm wide roll and cut that roll into small square shaped chunks.)
  8. Roll out each square into a round shape with roller pin. Dont make it very thin.Keep it medium thick.
  9. Take a tsp full of filing and place on the rolled pastry.
       10.  Close it by all the sides and give a shape of a rectangle by pressing
               from both the sides. Make sure filling is not exposed by making sure
               that everything is well packed.



   11. In a heated Oven, place these Puffs on a Foil covered treys. 
         Keep the trey in a middle shelf of oven. Bake for 12-15 min or less or 
         more until they puff up and turn light golden brown.
