Difficulty: Intermediate
Preparation Time: 10-30 Minutes
Number of Servings: 24

Ingredients:
1 1/2 Cup(s) unbleached flour
3 Tablespoon(s) oil, vegetable
1/2 Teaspoon(s) coursely ground ajwain seeds
1/2 Teaspoon(s) salt
3/10 Cup(s) water

Remove to another bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let rest a least 1 hour and up to 4 hours.

Lightly oil your clean hands then divide into 12 balls. Cover with aluminum foil and set aside.

Working with each ball separately, flatten it into a disc with your fingertips, coat well with dry flour then roll with a rolling pin into a 6 to 7 inch circle of uniform thickness.

Cut the circle in half and brush with water along the straight edge.

Cook the potatoes in lightly salted boiling water to cover until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain, let cool, then peel and finely chop.

Quickly add the fenugreek seeds and mix in the potatoes and peas.

Stir about 2 minutes, then add the ginger, green chile peppers, coriander, salt, and garam masala, and stir occasionally until the potatoes are golden, about 10 minutes.

Add the cilantro and mango powder and cook another 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool before using.
