Ingredients

• 2 sheets Puff pastry sheets
• 2 medium Potatoes
• 1 medium Carrot
• 0.5 cup Green peas
• 1 medium Onion
• 2 tablespoons Oil
• 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
• 1 teaspoon Ginger-garlic paste
• 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Garam masala
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Fresh coriander leaves
• 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Water

Directions

Step 1

Thaw the puff pastry sheets according to package instructions.

Step 2

Peel and dice the potatoes into small cubes. Peel and grate the carrot.

Step 3

In a pan, heat oil over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and allow them to splutter.

Step 4

Add finely chopped onion and sauté until translucent.

Step 5

Stir in the ginger-garlic paste and sauté for another minute until the raw smell disappears.

Step 6

Add the diced potatoes and grated carrot along with the green peas. Stir well.

Step 7

Add turmeric, red chili powder, garam masala, and salt. Mix everything thoroughly.

Step 8

Cover and cook the vegetable mixture on low heat until potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes.

Step 9

Remove from heat and stir in chopped fresh coriander leaves. Set aside to cool completely.

Step 10

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 11

Unroll the puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. Cut each sheet into 6 equal squares.

Step 12

Place a spoonful of the cooled vegetable filling in the center of each square.

Step 13

In a small bowl, mix all-purpose flour and water to make a paste. Use this paste to moisten the edges of the pastry.

Step 14

Fold the pastry corner-to-corner to form a triangle, pressing the edges together to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges.

Step 15

Arrange the puffs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 16

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and puffed.

Step 17

Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your delicious veggie puffs!
