Vegetable Rolls

I decided to make vegetable puffs but rolled the puff pastry and ended up making vegetable rolls..They tasted good and reminded those we get in bakeries in India..
Here is how I made them..

                 

Ingredients


Puff Pastry
Your choice of vegetables like potato,carrot,green peas,bell peppers etc - A total of two cups when chopped
One small sized onion finely diced
Garlic paste - 1 tbspn
Garam masala - 1 tbspn
Chilli powder - 1 teaspoon
Cumin/Jeera seeds - 1 teaspoon
Salt to taste

Directions

Thaw the puff pastry for half an hour or according to the package instructions..
Boil all the vegetables along with water..Mash them well..
In a vessel take a little oil and splutter the cumin seeds..Add the garlic and onions and saute them for a minute...
Then add the boiled vegetables,chilli powder,garam masala and salt and mix thoroughly..Cook for one more minute..allow the cooked mixture to cool thoroughly.
Dust the counter with some flour and roll out the puff pastry a little with a rolling pin..
Cut the pastry into rectangles or triangles depending on the shape of the puffs or rolls you desire to make..

          

                                  

Place the cooked vegetable mixture and close the puff pastry..
I cut the puff pastry into rectangles and rolled it from one end to form a roll..
Brush the surface of the pastry with a little butter/ghee so that it forms a nice golden - brown crust..
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees for ten minutes..
Bake the puffs for 30 minutes or untill they turn golden brown in colour..
The puffs are ready to be relished..
