Directions
Step 1
Boil the potatoes until soft, then peel and mash them in a large bowl.
Step 2
In a pan, heat 2 Tbsp oil and add cumin seeds. Let them splutter for a few seconds.
Step 3
Add ginger and chopped green chilies. Sauté for 1 minute.
Step 4
Mix in peas, coriander powder, and salt. Cook until peas soften.
Step 5
Add mashed potatoes to the pan and stir well. Cook the mixture for 3–4 minutes. Let it cool.
Step 6
In a separate bowl, mix flour, carom seeds, salt, and 2 Tbsp oil. Gradually add water and knead into a stiff dough.
Step 7
Cover the dough and rest it for 20 minutes. Then divide into small balls and roll into oval shapes.

Cut each oval in half. Wet the straight edge, form a cone, and seal it by pressing the edges.

Fill the cone with the potato mixture and seal the top tightly to form a triangle.
