Instructions
 

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, breadcrumbs, yogurt, salt, green chilies, and chopped coriander.
  • Mix the ingredients thoroughly until well combined. The mixture should not be too sticky.
  • Heat the oil in a wok or deep fryer. While the oil heats, prepare the potato rolls.
  • Lightly grease your palms. Take a small portion of the potato mixture, about the size of a small lime, and roll it into an oval shape.
  • Carefully drop the potato rolls into the hot oil. Deep fry them until they turn a beautiful golden brown and become crispy.
  • This creates a perfectly crisp exterior. Once golden brown, remove the rolls from the oil and transfer them to a plate lined with absorbent paper to drain excess oil.
  • Serve the crispy potato rolls hot with tomato ketchup or chutney and a comforting cup of tea.

Recipe Notes

Good To Know

  • If the mixture gets sticky and you are unable to make perfect rolls, add a little more breadcrumbs.
  • For an extra crispy exterior, double-coat the potato rolls by dipping them first in a thin yogurt-water mixture, then rolling again in breadcrumbs before frying.
  • To add more depth and a tangy twist, mix a spoonful of amchur (dry mango powder) or a squeeze of lemon juice into the potato filling.
  • If you want to make these ahead for parties, shape and bread the rolls, then freeze them on a tray; fry directly from frozen, adding an extra minute to the cooking time.
  • For a healthier alternative, bake the prepared rolls on a baking tray sprayed with oil at 200°C (400°F) until golden and crisp, turning once halfway through.

Expert Tips

  • Ensure your potatoes are well-mashed to create a smooth filling that binds well with the other ingredients.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when frying. This will lower the oil temperature and result in soggy rolls. Fry in batches for best results.
  • Serve these potato rolls hot with a side of chutney or dipping sauce of your choice for a complete and satisfying snack or appetizer.

Storage Instructions

  • Leftover fried potato rolls can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a preheated oven or air fryer for a few minutes until warmed through and crispy.
