Puff Patties

Hi Friends,

Today's recipe of the day is Puff Patties. This recipe is devoted to my dearest friend Rohini, she is the one who actually inspired me to start this blog. So Roh here u go for Puff Patties recipe.
Puff Patties:

Ingredients: Potato, Pastry Sheet,chaat masala,red chilli powder,lemon,ginger paste,garam masala,egg wash ( beat the egg )

Patties Masala:

• Boil the potato depending how many you want to make. Normally I would take 1 potato good enough to make 5 puff patties.
• Peel potato and crush it in a plate.
• Add red cilli powder (as per your taste buds , spicy or mild ), 1 teaspoon of lemon juice ,garam masala ,ginger paste,chaat masala,salt (as per the taste) to it. Instead of all this you can also try adding on Pav bhaji masala ,lemon,and salt to it.

You can even make the masala with crushed Paneer.

For the Puff :

• For the puff you can find that in frozen section in grocery store. I normally get Pepperidge farm Puff pastry sheets . They have 2 sheets which can make around 18 Puff patties.
• Thaw the puff pastry for 20 mins, you dont want to thaw it longer then it becomes sticky and very hard to unfold it ( from my personal experience ;))
  After 20 mins you can unfold it and then keep it for some more time to come up to room temperature.
• If you lose your patience you can keep it in microwave for 5 seconds ( not more than that ) .Once @ room temperature you want to get one long pastry sheet and cut it in 3 pieces.
• Fill puff masala (potato masala) in 1 rectangular piece of the pastry.
  Apply some egg wash ( if you dont eat egg you can always apply all purpose( Maida) paste )at the corner of the rectangular sheet. Fold upper right corner diagonally to meet lower left corner and crease edge.
  Apply egg wash @ the top . ( this is optional if you apply this it becomes more flaky and cripy)
• Make all the required puff patties

Cooking:

• Preheat the over for 400F.
• Take an aluminum sheet and place all your puff patties on top of it and keep it in oven for 15-20 mins.
• After 15 -20 mins it will turn nice golden brown .......you want to cool it for some time so that you dont burn your mouth..
• All ready and set you can have it with Ketchup or hot sauce.

This is a good snack in parties or just have in evening and very easy to make .Hope you all enjoy this dish.
