Ingredients

• 3 medium sized- boiled potatoes.
• 10 green chillies (hot small variety), minced.
• 4 tbsp- chopped coriander leaves.
• 1 inch piece- fresh ginger, crushed finely.
• 1 tsp- mustard seeds.
• 15 tsp- cumin seeds.

How to Make Potato Stuffing

• Boil the potatoes in their skins till soft, remove the skins and mash very nicely with a fork. Set aside.
• Heat the oil and add the mustard, cumin, ginger and green chillies.
• When the mustard starts crackling (this should take about 2-4 mins), add the hing and chilli powder and fry for about 1/2 a minute.
• Remove from heat, add the mashed potatoes, chopped coriander leaves and salt to taste.
• Mix well and heat through.
• Remove and transfer to a bowl.
• This recipe yields about 2 cups of stuffing.
• Use this stuffing for potato parathas, toasted potato sandwiches, bread pakodas, stuffed vegetables (bell peppers, tomatoes, etc) and potato bondas.
• On its own, it makes a yummy bhaji that goes very well with puris.
