Masala Puffs

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. 
2. In a pan heat some oil, once the oil is hot add mustard seeds & cumin seeds. Once it starts to splatter add asafoetida, curry leaves, ginger, garlic, and onions. Saute until the onion is translucent. 
3. Add in tomatoes,carrots, peas,turmeric powder, red chili powder, garam masala, cumin coriander powder, amchur powder, dried mind, salt, and mix well. 
4. Add in the potatoes and mix well. Top it with cilantro and set the mixture aside until ready to use. 
5. On a flat surface sprinkle some all purpose flour, lay the puff pastry sheet and cut in  columns (along the folded lines). Roll each column, then cut each into 3 cubes (3 inch cubes, it should make 9 puffs out of one sheet). Use flour as and if needed to prevent sticking. 
6. On each square put about 1-2 tbsp of the filling, top it with cheese if using, using water to seal all the edges. Take a fork and press down all four sides with it. Carve a small X with a knife to ensure ventilation for the puffs. 
7. Line your baking tray with parchment paper, place the puffs on it and bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Keep an eye on it so it doesn’t burn. 
8. Serve hot with maggi sauce or green chutney!
